Once,
we drove my pick-up
into outer space.
I swear,
it's true,
we literally left the planet.
O sure,
we were high on alcohol,
had to crawl to the truck
for ignition.
But regardless,
think of how far we drove,
to Neptune & back,
twice before sunrise.

Once,
we drove my pick-up
into outer space.
I swear,
it's true,
we literally left the planet.
O sure,
we were high on alcohol,
had to crawl to the truck
for ignition.
But regardless,
think of how far we drove,
to Neptune & back,
twice before sunrise.
