Rural Georgia

I remember georgia with her hair
 curled up in a summer dress.
 

  bug zappers hung in porches
 let the humid air curl down further,.

Sitting there or over here next to you watching 
the neon apostolic ghost gather in its congregation.

Mesmorized by the inability of the local insects not
 to stay away from the light.

Suicidally brilliant in a quick flash gone forever..
