Long Acre Mile


A waxing gibbous
clubhouse mountain turn
spiked with floodlight moths
and dogfighting bats
frame the grandstand's 
track.
On this furnace fire
night, 
three across the board
on the six horse
in the second
puts cold beer 
in grateful grasp.
Tomorrow
we unroll 
the highway ribbon
south.
In full moon midnight
we will shake out
a ground glass rhythm
to 
a low beat rhyme.
A return.
I return,
newly same
only different.

Hi.
It really takes time to say a "Hi", eh? ^^
I hope the scatch didnt annoy you, but that was my first try. If it's ok, I'll try again: it's just such a nice photo, very sweet.
