1..2..3..4

IN THE BACKSEAT OF A CAR
I'M LOOKING AT THE WORLD
THROUGH SLEEPY EYES
AT ILLUMINATED NIMBUS CLOUDS
OF RED, PINK, ORANGE, & GREEN
THOSE COLOURS PLACED THERE BY
THE SETTING SUN
IF I SQUINT HARD ENOUGH
I MIGHT SEE HEAVEN
SLOWLY I DRIFT AWAY
NOW I'M UP IN THOSE CLOUDS
NO NEED FOR SQUINTING
I THINK TO MYSELF
"GOOD THING I'M NOT DRIVING"
I'M LOOKING DOWN ON THE CAR
THAT CARRIES MY BODY
SERPERATED FROM MY BODY
MY SOUL IS FREE
FREE TO DREAM ABOUT MY LOVER
SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL
LIKE AN ANGEL IN THE
LOW LAND GRASS
SURROUNDED BY TREES
THE BREEZE MAKES FOR
A PERFECT SETTING
LIKE CARRY ON LUGGAGE
MY HEART HAS A HANDLE
FOR HER TO HOLD
AS SHE RISES TO HER FEET
THE STILL SETTING SUN
TO HER BACK SHE SAYS
"IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU GOT HERE"
AND ON THAT NOTE I KISS HER
AND SAY "BABY I'M SORRY
I FLEW AS FAST AS I COULD"
WITH THOSE WORDS
SHE CRACKS A SMILE
SO I SAY" SHALL WE DANCE?"
"BUT THERE'S NO MUSIC" SHE SAYS
"WE DON'T NEED MUSIC" I SAY
AS I TAKE HER BY THE HAND
AS WE CRUSH THE GRASS
WITH NO SHOES ON OUR FEET
AS ALWAYS
BAREFOOT AND RESTLESS
OUR EYES LOCK
FOR HOURS NOT EVEN A BLINK
THE SUN IS FAR GONE NOW
WITH STARS TWINKLING UP ABOVE
A GUST OF WIND RUSHES UP
CUTTING THROUGH US LIKE DAGGERS
SO I PULL MY LOVE CLOSE
TO KEEP HER WARM
FEELING HER BARE
GOOSEBUMP COVERED ARMS
I SAY "LET'S GO INSIDE"
"NO!" SHE YELLS
"I WANT TO STAY IN YOUR ARMS
FOREVER" WHAT COULD I SAY?
SO WE SIT IN THE GRASS
THE SAME GRASS THAT
PREVIOUSLY TICKLED HER BACK
AS SHE WAITED FOR MY ARRRIVAL
"LOOK" I SAY "ALL THE CLOUDS
ARE GONE AND YOU CAN SEE THE
BIG DIPPER"
"I LOVE YOU" I SAY "I DO"
"RON" SHE SAYS
HER VOICE CHANGING
INTO A MALE VOICE
"RON WAKE UP" THE VOICE SAYS
IN THE FRONTSEAT
"WHAT?" I SAY REALIZING
I'M BACK IN THE CAR
BACK IN HELL
BUT IT'S NOT HELL
CAUSE MY ANGEL IN THE
LOW LAND GRASS IS REAL
MY LOVE IS REAL
"RON" THE VOICE SAYS AGAIN
"WHAT?" I SAY
"ARE YOU SLEEPING?" HE SAYS

AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
