Medical Advice From the Religious Lady
They should play harps
instead of using Prozac
says the woman at the Biblical Harp Store
I suppose at the Prozac store
they don’t speak too highly of Biblical Harps either
Talking With Arabs
Walking through Arab village

We only have twenty minutes
which is enough
to talk about football
North Carolina
and how they feel like second class citizens

Flying Home from Tel Aviv
I am in the airport
I am on the plane
I am in the air
I am drinking water
Water leaks from plane ceiling
Doesn’t seem right
I have four shequels in my pocket
I am thirty one thousand feet and climbing
It is a different time everywhere
Girl next to me laughs like a Canadian
living in the Dakotas
I am duty free
I am salute the other passengers
I am still climbing
I am eighteen hours away
I am gone from Holy Land
I am hands smell like banana
I am leave guitar on Tarmac
I am in flight movie
I am eat
I am sleep
I am fly, fly, fly
