PUNK POETRY: travels porto portugal, october 2022 by Mario Pujol
afraid of being caught lookin ’ at myself in the mirror in a hallway of a seedy motel in Porto , where it smells like the guest next door has been chain-smoking since the sun set. I ’ m thrilled to see you again even though I haven ’ t had the chance to count the days left yet & I still have some mending to do on the old backpack Sage just gifted me. take a look at the rose that grows on the rocks , I might be a bit drunk by now. I thought I don ’ t drink anymore… --Mario Pujol
