Perfect Sleeping Weather (the book) (signed)
Price includes shipping to anywhere in the US.

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

Staring at the world in reverse
via the mirror behind the bar.
It’s the opposite of all the same shit
without being the opposite.

A candle flickers in a red glass before me
and so it will be, weeks from now,
months from now.

I’m younger than I feel
but I’m pretty sure she’s as bored as she looks.
Our dumb beards and possibly-prescription eyeglasses
make us appear like we have something to offer.

But we don’t.
And the joke’s on you
until it’s on us
on one of our last days.

Bleed out, goddamn it.
Bleed out.
