The fading history of 1984 (a poem)
Found a JCPenney MCS 3543 cassette deck at Goodwill in Everett on Thursday afternoon. I couldn’t find a spot to plug it in and test it, but it was clean and appeared to be in good condition, and it was only about $15 (red tags were 30% off that day). The best part? REAL VU METERS with needles! By that time—the early 1980s—most new decks came with peak-reading LED meters. Anyway, I got around to trying it out, which put me in a 1984 frame of mind…
Dear Saturday…
Dear Saturday,
Woke up early-ish again. If I can make it through the next hour without falling asleep again, I should get through the rest of the day without napping.
Love,

Dear Friday,
So all those people who were saying summer had come early? I told you so.
