    Scrawled into notebooks from the familiar comforts of temporary homes and the passenger seats of mechanically unsound vehicles adrift on the highways and back roads of America, Perfect Sleeping Weather is fifteen years of thoughts, observations, facts, and fictions hammered into a collection of poetry that, according to one reader, "sounds like a sigh."

    In this, his first book, writer/drummer/comedian Larry Fulford reflects on the usual -- life, death, love and leaving -- while still managing to name-check Van Halen. Twice.

lyrics

Sunday people.
Sun in the eyes is
the needle in the arm.
Running on two-and-a-half hours of sleep,
sputtering out in my seat.

She makes great faces
and has a weakness
for Ye Olde English
epic period pieces.

Surprisingly,
I have no problem making it home without dying,
unless you count the death of energy
and Alzheimer’s exhaustion.

Then I’m dead.
Fucking real dead.

But it was worth it.
Fucking real worth it

to lie awake on a marshmallow comforter
next to her with her glasses off,
a big star dangling above me,
butterflies in the corner
and James Dean.
