on youtube bounces
red lamplight off electric
blue lemonade vaporizer
what a treasure!
one of the comments buzzing
with the air scrubber
as i cross my legs tightly,
squeezing and releasing
thinking of reading to you
again in a small space that's ours
for the moment then it's gone
you go inside and i'm outside leaning
on dirty frank's wall
with rob the navy cook
frank says that's a young marty frank
but no one knew who that was
rob said the drugs were good in vietnam
i asked him how much weight
did you move out of vietnam
camilla posts a photo of a sign
outside of the buddhist temple
that read
South Vietnam
Gone But Not Forgotten
but you came back for me
and we held each other tightly
and walked out of the crowd smoke
and into the dark
our heels clicking
and you and you
and you and i laughing
