title: Months in the City
---

A collection of short poems intended to encompass twelve total. These trifles were born out of a creative spurt after I left the startup world and started enjoying the City by the Bay again.

The collection is incomplete, and currently encompasses only four poems:

<dl><dt><span style="text-decoration: underline;">{moscontentlink:january}</span></dt><dd>is the original text of a personal ad I put up. I got great responses, several of whom said they liked my ‘poem’. January was never meant to be a poem, but became so by people’s choice.</dd><dt><span style="text-decoration: underline;">{moscontentlink:february}</span></dt><dd>is the gayest of the bunch, a very short poem written just as the first mimosas started blooming and the grip of winter started leaving the City.</dd><dt><span style="text-decoration: underline;">{moscontentlink:june}</span></dt><dd>is more of an embarrassment and may be replaced by a better one later on.</dd><dt><span style="text-decoration: underline;">{moscontentlink:july}</span></dt><dd>soon after I left the City for the burbs, I went through a really rough patch that had a lot of the characteristics of a depression. I never had felt anything like that, and this is the result of my remembrance.</dd><dt>{moscontentlink:august}</dt><dd>just like january, the text of another personal ad. Same thing happened as with january, despite the fact that august is much shorter and much less interesting.</dd></dl>
