Remembering Sunday on a Saturday Night
The road stretched like
lyrics, where there were lines
to cross
and a night to argue with
Crushed between
the passenger seat and a matchstick
body was my favorite hoodie
Lips like asphalt -
hottest during the summer
She said
I hope this makes you sad
And the metal hummed
beneath our blacked-out Vans
