May 2015
a thousand ships were launched
on the night I saw you
beautiful in the corner
of some Texas dive bar
you were wild
you were magic
your hair was like fire
eyes like the emerald isles
drinking shiner from a bottle
reciting Greek tragedies from memory
I called you Athena
and you looked past my awkward
air
