these notes will be poems

-Waking up early and shoveling out three cars in your driveway
-Putting on gloves that say "I AM CANADIAN" to do so
-driving from your parents' place to your own apartment, and seeing your roomate getting a boost from a car
-turning on the radio and hearing "Silver Jet" by the Hip
-running away from work as soon as possible
-scraping windows with burnt CDs
-skipping supper to fish out pretzels
-getting drunk on scrabble
-sleeping in your own bed and looking at stars through your own window
-hearing sounds of love through walls
