You Can Almost See the Ocean
It’s important to me to live in a city
with museums, big league sports, nightlife,
so that I can enjoy staying home
Baltimore has a subway I’ve never once been on
When I lived in Los Angeles I actually
went to the beach a few times
Despite being single, it was like having a secret second family
so I got out after a year and returned
to Baltimore where,
since my wife gave up treyf,
I no longer eat in the restaurants
My sense of smell is now almost as acute as a labradoodle’s
