I wanna know if love is real

Springsteen Artefacts: An Anthropological Dig

A dream of rifling deep down inside his dresser drawer, of peeking under his pillow. Helping myself to sandwiches and beer from his rider, a slow awesome exploration of his dressing room. Notebooks, suitcases, a stone pony figurine. Like the intimacy of artefacts strewn across a stranger’s bedroom floor, each commonplace object is imbued with significance, magic even, in the dreamer’s mind (devils and dust). I open your closet and inhale your babe-like scent:

- 3 pairs of blue jeans

- 1 black leather jacket

- 2 red bandanas

- 5 plaid flannelette shirts

- 7 singlets (navy, white, red)

- 55 t-shirts (black, white, grey)

- 1 black suit

- 5 dress shirts

- 1 purple paisley shirt (!)

- 3 vests (denim, black, grey)

- Belts, various hats, black motorcycle boots, sneakers...

And then...

Amidst the miscellanea, amps, effects pedals, harmonicas, tambourines, microphones, picks, cables: the plethora of Fenders and Gibsons sparkling like jewels, tuned and strung and ready to rock and roll.
