Tastes Like Blue
The nostalgia returns in
A perfume hierarchy,
Her indescribably sexual scent,
Grander than life.
Teens who know no curfew
Cover every square inch of
The Toyota hatchback’s fold-down,
Hastily struggling with a brassiere.
Just as “Comfortably Numb” takes flight
For the umpteenth time,
Their naked bodies appear in full relief
Under a squad car spotlight.
