the way back down from love town
seemed like a whole different highway
the ocean was older then like a friend
that had not been seen for too long

I replayed the video of our hunting
for flaws and reasons why or why not
and laughed at my purposeful blindness
how I wasn't sorry I couldn't find any

but maybe you did find a few or more
though they would have not been new ones
but second handed already adjusted
if there were any left after the yard sales

there was a place at the bottom of the hill
where I curbed my leather and smoked a cigar
I guess in celebration of our beginning
or of our ending if that is how it becomes

highways need that sometimes or they stay lonely

I love your highway reflections. They go deeper than the surface. Beautiful!

Those love towns can certainly alter our perceptions, can't they? *S* This is fantastic! *S*

I am particularly fond of the beginning of this effective 'write'!:

"the way back down from love town
seemed like a whole different highway
the ocean was older then like a friend
that had not been seen for too long"

applause!!

I thoroughly loved this!  I hope it is only the beginning of many new highways to be traveled.

in crazy car love,
his rear view mirror offered
a glimpse at her past.
