Sunday Afternoon

(wrote this three years ago)

Sunday Afternoon

We sit.
We talk.
Our heads swivel from eye contact
to a jittery hand counting seconds.
Perhaps his red Jeep Cherokee would drive
the stopper from a bottle of bubbling words.
But neither of us wishes to leave.
The hand jits another jat
And we are left gazing
into eyes full
of champagne questions.
