bits and pieces of months and months ago remembered.

the brownwooden table in the backcorner.

under the dim yellow light. under no light at all.

smoke. lotsandlots of s m o k e.

the swinging door swinging into my side over and over.irefused to move.

feeling the music. i n side.

pitchers of beer from bar to table to liver.

dancing.

crawling OVEr the tables and chairs to get to the front.

the bright glow of the digital clock. redlettERS reading 12:43 aM.

blumotupelo. blue MOTHER TUPELo.

SCREAMing into each other faces to hear over the MUSic.

people i don't know[strangers]touching me/talking to measkingme where im from and what's myname?]

cold cold night. freezing. dark. old men on porches. car is so far a w ay.

rushing on, hitting home.

and it's all over. like everything else. always over.
