Adventure is where you find it. In the midst of the city that always sleeps, we find our fun amongst the holographic Jesuses and the giant rubber phalluses. We carouse through Chinese takeouts, we snap photos of gummi sharks, we almost get struck by cars as we discuss the original Lord of the Rings. The buildings may all be boarded up and dead inside, but here in the swampy heat, we reconfirm our existence one lunch at a time.

I watch you over the rim of my coffee cup. Our diner booth a universe all to its own. The sugar, salt and pepper line up like planets. Creamer swirls like the milky way and I can no longer deny your gravity. We kiss. I see stars. Our heavenly bodies mix and mingle and a new world is born.

There is a cemetery in the middle of downtown. They are coming. I hear them stirring under the grass and all the piegons have left the square. I hope the zombies don't rise during rush hour. It would make my commute murder.
