I heard people wanted Chicago content?
Neon lighted sign for Chicago’ Wrigley Field announcing a Bruce Springsteen and the E street band concert. It’s dusk so the sign is nice and bright on an early September night in 2015.

Choose your fighter: painfully dry hands season.
Round large tubs of Aquaphor, African Shea Butter, and lavender Salve. Awuaphor is a white tub with blue and red writing. Shea butter is a clear color brained with gold label. Lavender is from Los Poblanos farm and has old fashioned white label on an opaque jar with black lid. It’s the smallest container.

When asked how I was doing earlier today:
Tired (poem by Langston Hughes) I am so tired of waiting, Aren’t you, For the world to become good And beautiful and kind? Let us take a knife And cut the world in two - And see what worms are eating At the rind.
