This collection of poems chronicles experiences and observations from 2003-2005. 

The highlight of Thinking of Saints is the Bookstore Blues, a series of poems written during a year off from college as a full time employee at Borders, an employment that ultimately ended in handcuffs.

there were a group
of independents
from San Fran
moved down to Los An
an underground house
away from home
trying to make it
on their own
liberated from curfew
missing homecooked meals
living day to day
on mac n cheese
begging please
for more than the mundane
otherwise theyd go insane
should try movin
to other coast
more miles away
than LA
