It is worse, almost, than rain
sudden illumination of
hot rubber on long black lanes
slight jerk of the hand when you meet the sun's eye
and look away first
reminding you of times when
65 was way too fast
decisions were not yours to make, but ask
and bright light and crisp breath meant
cereal and fresh leaf piling
not cigarettes, and stale regrets.
Good morning.
