Day 23

I met him at a party and he told me

How to drive him home

He said he liked to do it backwards

I said that's just fine with me

That way we can f**k and watch TV

It was four am and the light was gray like it

Always is in paperbacks

He asked if I liked playing jacks

I told him that I was good to sixes

But all hell broke loose after that

I told him that I knew Julia Roberts when

I was twelve at summer camp

We didn't say anything after that

I dropped him off and I drove on home

'Cause secretly I'm timid
