capitol city- adult head


Recommended Posts

sorry if this has been discussed, but just noticed that "capitol city" is one of the poem's in tweedy's collection, "adult head". interesting peak into the creative process that he can pick some thing up from years ago, and rework it now. i know he has done this before. kinda cool.

Found this in a review of Adult Head: "It's easy to imagine the straightforward descriptive language of "Capital City" set to music: "in a capital city skyline photo / skyscrapers shine with sun / low in the blue sky / but the secretaries and the hot dog vendors / and the car horns honking at bicycle messengers / make no reply."
