drive home feeling heavy
your friend got an ulcer, but she's 31
trees arch over the narrow 4-lane
arching their backs like girls at sex
faking it, maybe,
you know you do.
time is relentless, fortunately.
if you did something every day for five years, you'd be 30 years old at the end of it
but you'll be 30 years old anyway,
then.
get on with it, winter
soon the arches will be white, the girl will be shivering
so will i
it's easier to fake it
if everyone else is
right?
