me and all my red satin into the cab of the truck
and carefully, so not to call
attention

rolled down the window and
leaned back in the seat.  I would be happy to go home, any home that held Ben on a semi

didn’t matter, I realized, where.  The open window
allowed
snatches of scents: the warm vines, the
sweet
raisin

of fermentation. My hair loosened in the wind. I closed my eyes and let the whole season wash over me.

hairstyle
fell victim to the wind.

“Vegas
,

I repeated. 

“It solves a lot of problems.”

I could
dress in
a toga
.

Be
married by Elvis.

Live happily ever after.
