SALT LAKE CITY INTERNATIONAL
We ordered white wine.
We ordered beers.
We talked of airports, the future of Fenway Park,
and where our parents were born.
And we all had another drink.
For a brief moment we traveled together,
raced through space and burned!
Look!
We left a blazing braid behind
in the adventurous web
of an infinite time.
