It would have been a keepsake at best-
Never worn or dressing my tiny high school frame
like a uniform or an oath
So I took the money instead
Anyway, there were other things on my mind:
A lack of plans and the view from the front seat of an 84 Caprice
as we sped up the highway to Miller Rd Or the way your face would glow when you laughed-
cherry red braces matching cherry red cheeks
