We turned up the radio in the car
as if it would make our favorite
song that much better. We were young
and stupid (what else could we be
if we were also young?) so I justified
it all to myself. Besides, in old age
we would lose our hearing anyway.
We might as well enjoy the ride.
I was hungry so we stopped at a gas
station and we got five Little Debbie
cakes and a bag of pretzels and a pack
of gum for after. By two o’clock,
it was all gone and we were only
in Pennsylvania.
