POINTS ON A MAP:

Playa-del-rey, a two room apartment set back from the road, 
short lease, no garden, tarmac out front, only terrestrial
channels on the TV. A four track tape recorder, a microphone,
a guitar, a drum machine, a bunch of effects pedals.
A bed, a sofa, a kitchenette.
The convenience store next door smells of cinnamon & stewed 
coffee, the owner says “hi!” every morning like he knows me.
