Grinds

Dear Tina,

I love your burritos.

They are simple and cheap.

You provide a commoner's touch to our pretentious world.

You satisfy my wallet, my stomach, my soul.

I know you're not racist.

You partner well with an IPA, a frosty Miller Lite, 

or an icy cold glass of milk.

You have such a commoner’s vibe to your writing in the best sort of way, like a Sandburg, Frost, Twain mixture with Ginsberg bitters tossed in.

Winston,
Thanks man. I love commoners. I am one. And I love all the writers you listed. There is some really great writing on here. I dig your work.

3 of my faves in one poem, an IPA, definitely a frosty Miller Lite and a cold glass of milk. And I don't know Tina, but if I did, I would probably like her too!

Thanks man. About to get outta the classroom and grab a cold one at home. Tina's Burritos - good, cheap eating.

a unique love poem/letter. it reminds me of Bukowski, maybe because of the "working class" tone, and perhaps because of the mentioning of the beer. there's also the importance of being "real" in a pretentious world, which B. thought important. i wonder how Tina would respond.

Thanks Laz. I dig Bukowski's work. I sent it to Tina's Burritos and they sent me a really joyful, silly email of gratitude. That was fun.
