i can’t remember the last time i went to St Kilda once upon a time i went there almost every weekend but when i moved across town i changed my habits and so my regular places became new ones on this side to match my new life as it were just for once we hopped on a tram all the way through town there were fancier intersections and lots of wooden stuff »
on the tram a woman sits in front of me juggling a happy jack russell while she scratches an instant bingo card and then i notice her t-shirt which says “illusion”. »
we’re looking for the future a new one one not couched in terms of the things we don’t want to do. wish me luck. »

I’m walking down Fitzroy St in Fitzroy, when I stop to say hello to a cat. As it stretches and stands up to look at me I hear an old Hank Williams song – Honky Tonkin’ – wafting through a screen door next to me. »
