the bangle-seller's call
the length of an alley

the seductive label
of a new wine

little black dress—
I squeeze her lipstick
into my cummerbund

happy hour outdoors
the complimentary
sunset

waterfront café
incoming tide through planks
beneath our feet

gathering the night
around itself
whippoorwill

stargazing
    my fingers
grasping sand

buzzing neon—
the way he talks
about New York

withered fields—
the pulsing of
a lone glow worm
