we drive to Sandwich Becky Sandy and I to visit ghosts and one live person tires sing on route 6 and we sing along with Linda Ronstadt I’ve got a crush on you sweetie pie I had a crush on a man in Sandwich ghost now we stop for stuffed quahogs at Bobby Byrne’s Cape Codders never eat little necks tough and chewy like us crave cool jazz but keeping room won’t open till leaves change tradition find a carousel in Sandwich I pass the gnarled tooth tiger looking for horse my legs seem to remember this horse this carousel this round and round hey was this here when we were kids nope it’s new sometimes things change on Cape Cod pull into driveway grey shingled two story needs work woman answers loose jeans red hair pulled back Teague here? naw moved on Connecticut I believe on the way back Linda Ronstadt fills the car Becky turns her off before she can sing what’ll I do? |

That last line was the clincher and I won't get the song out of my head for the rest of the evening... maybe even the week. |
