The Diamond Line

behold! the beauty of fluorescent light in the dead of night. 

this place is a refuge of restless evenings, 

this fortress in all its sterile beauty, this shining beast of modernity. 

 

on sleepless nights, i walk its aisles like a ghost. 

i read the labels of every brand of peanut butter on the shelves 

because i’ve got all the time in the world.
