I would have gone into Scottie's garage to the mattress with you when I was nine and you were twelve, or seemed like you were. And we would have lain on that bare bed-like thing in a shaft of light and dust. We might have laughed too. Initiation rights, the kind I always wanted, might have occurred on that worn out piece of flotsam in a back alley idea of someone's suburban dream in the 1960's. Between two poets who were destined to meet up anyway, so it was fate, sunshine. Definitely fate.
