THE MOON HIDES HER FACE

He...he's
wondering IF

he's coming on
too strong?

&...stops!

She's wondering IF
to kiss him now

would be so very very
wrong?

&...doesn't!

He's wondering IF
he should

...go easy?

She's wondering IF
he thinks she's too easy?

& both awkwardly
st?op!

And so
nothing happens.

"Good...night!" she stumbles
over the syllables.

"Good...good night!"
he echoes.

Once inside she
cries behind her bright red front door.

"****!" he curses himself ". . .& ****!"

Kicks an empty
crushed Coca Cola can.

The moon hides her face.
