Poem by Richard Brautigan

The 12,000,000

I'm depressed,
haunted by melancholy
that does not have a reflection
     nor cast a shadow.
12,000,000 people live here in Tokyo.
I know I'm not alone.
Others must feel the way
     I do.

1. The Wait
2. We Stopped at Perfect Days
3. 30 Cents, Two Transfers, Love
4. Restaurant
5. Affectionate Light Bulb
