RED DIRT

Red Dirt.
Pee-Pee Pod Trees
My lips enveloped around Katie's.
Wait a minute, I wasn't supposed to think of that.

The memories of Katie
are not among the reasons why I will not live in Hawaii.
But perhaps it is fortuitous that I will not be here,
to keep seeing things that remind me
of Katie.
