Six o’clock
Ventura, then the sun sets
We are far away from home
One more day we will reach the rain
Though tonight we’re writers
Pausing for the cause
Nothing’s sacred
Told the Dust
See you later!
In my daydream
We will be alright
Living in this
Midnight daydream
Riding on the coastline train tonight
Felt I was
A ditto
In my Chucks, and
Silverlake accessories
She laughed, “There’re worse
Places you could be.”
Yet she did not leave me
Wine in paper cups
Books are closing
We’ll do our best
“Before Sunrise”
In my daydream…
Rising with the coast
This is a big transition
She says, “Don’t you worry.
Your stop’s way past mine,
Just relax,
It’s just one time.”
Just a kiss,
Melted my neurotic
Fear I’d lost my edge
So we talked
Of songs and movie angst
Until the sun came
She got off
I fell asleep
Woke up smiling just past Eugene
Riding on the coastline train tonight
