TO ROXANNE AND CYRAN06
spied you thrU
my sitemeether lense
bi nary bi noculars
measure, for measure
the traffic
at my door
all the way from Arroyo Grande
C A
looking for words you were
to make her see fireworks
in the sky of your fly
on the Fourth of July
jenny, jenny I’ve got your (ISP) number
24.180.3.105
no area code necessary
these digits do the trick
you sought the Gee-Wiz!
for “poems to make her wet”
followed the yellowed—–stitched seams
& found yourself a home inside her \back pocket/
fingers spiral round the circumference
of denim clad spheres
eschewing independence that bright night
you wrapped yourself tight inside the flag of her embrace
