like being alone with company: a poem about listening to giles corey and driving home on a monday night

la-sonambula:

the first time we made eye contact

we were thirteen and it was in a sub shop

and she gave me the biggest stink eye

my pubescent eyes had ever seen. and

five years later her eyes are more empty

than they were then, in their naïve glory,

and she stares at me still but now

she does it…

Juullliiaaaa….
