"They are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan." --Sarah Palin

Birds dance outside my window.
My body cold and teeth tinkling like piano keys.
Morocco gives up antiques to folks with money.
Overalls dance with sweater vests.
Lentils throttle the piano mover's gut after a long day at work.
I give up the window for a meadow.
I pedal into the droplets big as birds.

I'm interested in seeing the band X play in Portland at the end of March. It's their 31st anniversary tour.

Has anyone seen this band recently? I have a lot of their old recordings but I'm wondering how they sound live these days? The concert at the Crystal Ballroom features all the original band members and the tickets are 20 bucks.

What do you think?

It's about time to go...
