Into Another Reality Poem by RIC BASTASA

after the usual lengthy
lecture in the university
the usual hour after
something like 8: 45
on such usual evenings

i take the usual drive
from the city to my
urban homesomething like
fifteen kilometers alone

but this
time it will be different
i'll have the loud sounds
of some Queen songs on the DVD
and I'll join singing with them like
I'm going slightly mad

I was born to love you &
I wanna break free

and to All Fat Bottomed Girls
this is your Good Old-fashioned Lover Boy
Let's Get Down Make Love
Headlong
Heaven to Everyone
In the Lap of the Gods...
