Early Morning

Early morning is like
    a foreign country,
populated mainly
    by birds
      and
      empty soda cans

Lying

When we were 7 or 8,
we used to piss
off the stone wall
by the street.

Jeff's father
asked him
if we did.

Jeff said no.
His father said
"that's called lying."

After that, we'd say
"I have to lie"
and go piss
off the wall.
