You're tired after work but you get a beer after with a friend who is driving you home
and you think about the soccer ball in the front yard, how you want to kiss
from the door to the door in a shotgun house
or the feeling of want without need, how it is materializing
first chocolate then something you can't hold in hand.
and le petite gregory whose smile is warmth and flavor,
that time will spring sudden without much of a favor but you didn't ask.

you'll think about how what if you could make it back
for one night and wish,
to a place that taught you about scandal and music, love and viola canadensis.
