steady footing
I’m in Washington again. I have a job here, and get to go to church twice a week. There’s a coffee place in downtown Everett that has poetry readings on Thursday nights. Jennings Park has live music on Fridays, and a movie on a huge inflatable screen on Saturdays. I’ve had contact with two of my friends from way back in the day (we’re talking ten years ago) who I try to hang out with whenever I can. And there are boys, of course.
