Notes About The Poem

4th in Drop the Cliche Contest (Sponsor: Nette Onclaud)

The Night is Young and So Are We

Illusions trip over his glance,
its magnetic whisper—
murky man from the moon,
serenading stars. 
Below our reckless journey
in speeding cars, blind and wild,
our laughter attacking midnight.
Oh, my wind-swept hair!
Aren't we dapper again,
moving with legs that couldn't embarrass us?
