Ah, Yes

Listening to the radio,
elusive and empty,
a sacrosanct song meets an empty pack
as I reach the sky

Fall back into the school dances
remember the lunch tables and cheap fries.
an old world
it consumes me

A girl asks for a dance
Why not?
Innocence?
Why ‘naught’?

Reintroduced into a world of unadulterated
cute
nonsensical
crap.

Drifting back and forth
Breathing heavily
The dance lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever

Wake up, the song is over
The girl is gone
The memory fades
Along with everything else
