Chapter II

this year was a very unquiet one
fighting
among
manhood

forgive even less readily than she could his dishonesty

your face is like backroads
after rain
november
and its just guitar and
dirty chewed fingernails
stale car heater and
drive through coffee cups

turn this car upside down
tilt our faces up to rain
sing out

beach morning sunlight
vaulted up like a king
coast air
salt water
ill trace my finger down your arm like
rail road tracks
baby, the next train has already left
you better be on the next one at noon
