PACIFIC BEACH

PACIFIC BEACH
when I was 21
I moved out to San Diego
with a late model sport bike
Honda CBR600 F4
to be precise
a BMW
a Chevy Silverado
twenty-five grand in the bank
and the feeling like things
could not get any better
I returned home
not more than a year later
with forty-three cents in my pocket
the motorcycle
the car
the truck
sold
the money all gone
and the feeling like things
could not get any worse
sometimes, my friend
sometimes, that’s just how it goes
and regrets?
fuck regret
