How to Eat Denver

All I know of Denver is food, so you will be eating until you cry. First I’ll take to the Indian restaurant where the waiter is in love with me. You will ask for extra hot and he will say “oh really” the way he always does. Then up Colorado down 17th to St. Mark’s where the coffee tastes like skipped high school classes and the chairs outside are uncomfortable, like calculus. Then down 13th and a right on Grant where we will mourn where Watercourse used to be– I have written poems and poems about 13th and Grant, but you can’t read them, they’re too much me and no you. Up to the cheddar cheese place, Chedd’s I think, I can’t eat there anymore because it makes me sick, but I want you to. Just so you know, we will be eating breakfast food all the time. Each meal is a new day.
