boundless

meaningful in its meaningless:
windows rolled down
nightair canopied outstretched 
fingers
memorized streets flushed with 
the transience of our 
itching notions

we spoke of the seemingly surreal future
getting out of this red, square place
and slipping into a big city blissfully
unnoticed

words became arbitrary
as we pulled into the driveway
kicked back our seats
cried defiantly 
            the pending beauty
            the potential tragedy
            the growth spurt still
quivering in  muscle spasms


Clarity:
the world holds more for us
