old child, young child, feel alright
on a warm san francisco night

recently took auditcommandlanguage course
at needless markup in union square did pause
mind boggling a top at $398 a pop
a drop for some, for most a year’s crop

bypassed macy’s
and detoured to stacey’s
3 minutes to look
3 books I took

the life of language by steinmetz and kipfer

empires of the word by nicholas ostler

the language instinct by steven pinker
all a la noam chomsky chatter

if you’re going to san francisco
be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
if you’re going some cash to blow
there’s value fare outside of union square
