open letter to Mayor Sheila Dixon

Dear Mayor,

It is very inconsiderate and gimmicky to rush a reconstruction of the roads right by your campaign office because elections are upon us, especially since there are RESIDENTS who like to sleep at night. Seriously, a jackhammer ALL NIGHT LONG? Can I stay at your house, and bring some friends (i.e. everyone living in the vicinity), because I haven't gotten any sleep for the past several weeks and I'm a bit cranky.

Thanks,

fre

P.S. - I'm glad that you have a sign chained on the corner so that I would know that it was your idea; I don't want to misplace my rage. I have resisted the urge to scream at the night workers, because they are just doing their job, they didn't decide to work there. Maybe you could make them fix 295 as it's coming into the city, but, you know, work on the part where people live DURING THE DAY.

something for which to strive

once I have an RV just address all mail to my license plate number knowing that I won't be fearful when pulled over by the 5-0, they'll just be delivering the post.

everything makes so much sense after no sleep and before coffee.

I'm a poet, so this is a fucking poem because I say so; prove me otherwise.
