country singer in heat
smiled to the left with
beat red cheeks of rouge

sang me a song
about her boyfreind or
some hot stud in blue jeans

she was a live wire
set off by the  blue smiley
shyness i portrayed often in soial situations

in the days of autumn
several minivan play dates
guffaws and silence
calm and through the static 
acoustic guitars and picturebooks
horse whispers
of faint hidden nothingness

ovation strummer
camping summer
bean red truck of garage faith

room
of papers
smell of photo

we
past the eyeshadow land of
fairy sickness

on our own  two feet
of old doc boots
and withered converse

she walked as much as i had
