From the verses of Shakespeare to the violence of Football, a soft hand on the nape of my neck to a rim's hard rattle after a dunk, the mute of Miles to the rhymes of Rakim, Hershey's chocolate to a garlic peppered, cedar-planked salmon, Joel Dias-Porter's thoughts scatter like grains of black sand across a wind-blown beach.

In the Air Tonight
No moon
no birds, no bathers-
sound of waves
Waiting on a text-
where have all my
Swedish Fish gone?
As she approaches-
I pretend to meditate
on Starbucks logo
Until next we meet, may all your potatoes be sweet (and dusted with cinnamon.)
