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

I just tore a piece of the sky back
and found static:
a community of origins
and original sins;
angry, misinterpreted
waves of fly eggs
in spider webs.

You kept me up late with your roadtrip soundtrack
and I forgot to call my dad.

Return to me lifted,
prepared to stand upright
against the wind,
with tribal drum dances
echoing hope in strangers’ hands;

when I can strike the stars down with lit filament ease
and stand upright alongside you

against the wind.
