Mexico Part 2

under a palm tree
i like them best at night
i first realized this in southern California, the green glow of the city lights sharply
cutting out the lone shapes in the sky, nothing else competing with their elevation.
made me think of the doctor who explained bipolar disorder to me
"It's not exactly depression," I explained.
"Shut up, you're depressed..."
i told him my concerns about taking psychiatric medication
"Doesn't it make your behavior kind of...bubbly?"
he leaned back, amused.
"What's wrong with bubbly? You could use a few bubbles."
"Will I have to take them my whole life?"
"Who knows? Win the lottery, move to Hawaii, live on the beach - you may not need them."

The photos of the palm trees are quite amazing...really haunting.
