country boys

country piss drunk.
unlicensed 65 km turns on unlit roads
a barely dead pick-up truck
faster now,
blind spots and more road bends
he says he's mastered the skill
of holding a beer and driving
a novel reassurance for the city girl.

1 year forward, merritt interior
you can party if you want
i'm not leaving the tent
a novel reassurance for the city girl.
