Electric Review

Culture & Criticism Since 2003

“January 20, 2008”

(earlier)

Tonight found

This map

To John

Stewart’s house

(who)

Is John Stewart?

 (song)

Writer of lost

Guitar moons

(who)

I visited

Upon occasion

(funny)

I hadn’t seen

This map

In years

(yet)

Something told me

(not)

To throw

The crumpled

Paper away

(something)

Told me

It was

Strongly important

(two)

Hours later

(read)

The news

(Stewart)

Dead of massive

Brain attack

(the music)

In thirsty

Veiled pools

(fights)

Back tears

(I’ll)

Keep hold

Of this map

And know that

It proves

(spirits)

In the wind

(never)

Stop talking

(never)

Will we cease

(our)

Singing again
