I watch for you in the clouds,
and in gods breezes
across the tall grass
of this golden meadow.

Sitting in my pick-up truck
drinking un-iced cans of beer
all hot and foamy
with an aluminum aftertaste.

The shotgun on the seat
beside me like a familiar lover,
and in the distance
there is a tease of thunder.

I sit and watch for you,

and I wait.
