Goodnight

lets talk
about the night
when you picked me up
in that ugly white
buick,

bass thumping and
eyes bright,
pulling me close
and intoxicating me.

one a.m.:
a beam of light
of the nearby
lamp

that
little white
buick all
alone in the
empty parking lot

steamy windows
quiet bubbles
flowing through
each other

quickly
quietly
suddenly
goodnight.
