Walking towards West at 8 am,
when the sun touches your neck gently,
it’s the thing.
A cigarette seems to be lighter than ever,
maybe because I’m still before the breakfast,
I thought.
Maybe because it simply should be just like that,
early in the morning.
LES is slowly melting into Soho and even Bowery
is still sleepy and slow. Everything is in its order.
My small coffee black
waiting on the very edge of a small round red table,
has still the tone of the night.
I’m listing to the wind blow, watch the sun rise,
and no one can take you closer to this feeling
than Fleetwood Mac.
I’ll roll another one to start smoking
exactly at 2 min 55 sec when The Chain starts for good.
After tempura veggies and a night spent in Chinatown,
my thoughts were flying around with shrimp and fish.
Exotic fruits pulp left a red bucket across the street.
Loud splash hit the ground, I was in tropics.
But I just wanted to be Upstate, taking the exit nineteen at i87.
Instead, at 7 am I was passing by all these people with a smell
of old fashion soap flakes, rushing to their office jobs.
When Lula was pulling just slightly on our way home,
even morning cigarette tasted lighter. I felt something
between a warm friend’s hand on my shoulder
mixed with melancholy in The National sound that day.
The Sun was high up already, second cigarette
tastes as good as the very first one,
and I couldn’t wait to hear I Need My Girl loud again.
Don’t try is a zine created in 24 hours for Open Salon no.2.
In this very particular moment of my life I want to see every limitation, as another tool which can be used in my favor. This rule applies to time too.
Every note here has its story, every picture contains its cigarette smoke, sometime a tear, a black coffee smell or a smile, but it all happened thanks to those all special people I’m lucky to be surrounded by. Thank you all.
