Like the irregular output from those broken vinyl records
that Gunter bought at yard sales on Saturdays,
(experienced simultaneously with scenes of Galveston Texas
that were _____ trapped on a continuous loop in a plastic device
that we kept on top of the refrigerator)
the words of several songs were repeating in my mind
mingled with phrases from blue and white reports -

"The tab transmits a button event packet
and requests an acknowledgement."

_____"little brown jug how I love thee."
