This is the first
ride home
I ever enjoyed.
We leave
over the George Washington Bridge
drive through darkness
surrounded by lights
the bridge : the city
in the rearview mirror
he stares through the windshield
his hair hangs in his eyes
I push : play
Cheap Trick: I Want You to Want Me
sit Indian-style
back against the passenger door
eyes closed
my hair thrashing in the wind.
