Car keys.

Touching my arm
she makes her sweater softer
fuzzy cushioning
maybe she’s from cruising clouds

She just rides along
daydreaming with the birds
on every passing
utility pole

Sometimes
highway speakers
have a twin

All day
she’s helping strands of golden light
decorate themselves
around my steering wheel

Parked in the evening
moon craters make the rules
and she’s off bouncing across the hood

All I can do is smile
as the backdrop
has the ocean and sky
battling
over our eyes.

"Hear me, my chiefs!
I am tired; my heart is
sick and sad. From where
the sun stands I will fight
no more forever."
