01 ode to the clearing / 02 welcome to this thing to be forgotten / 03 how am i doing for time / 04 some people feel things all the time / 05 the first building we closed to rising sea levels / 06 the ashes / 07 getting used to it / 08 processed the fires, very chill about the pandemic / 09 at the supermarket, a real man / 10 a tiny bit of hope / 11 when can kids be trusted with boiling water / 12 good places to grieve / 13 did my friend die for nothing / 14 a boring city worker meets two artists / 15 i am tired of being pizza / 16 i'd rather die screaming / 17 jacarandas are good punctuation / 18 i write about hope
