I'll post some poetry every now and then. I'm working on a manuscript at this time. I write contemporary free verse.



Automatic


Devin and I were 15

We sat against the brick wall at the end of the duplex


We named each car that drove by

A lot of times

we would name the make and model before we saw it

just from its sound


There was a lot of arguing that day

calling the other "dumb ass" and names

After parting

we both felt comfortable

knowing

the other

didn't know cars
