ask me now

It's a fatalistic view
of a bygone era.

Cigarettes
Neckties

Miles Davis blues.

It's a hand in an elegant glove

Discretion

Gentle kisses on ear lobes

Whiskey neat

Blackouts

The fear . . . the fear . . . the fear

Old atomic age

Teen rebellion

A call for a simpler time, place, and way.

Daydreams of
chasing hobo ghost trains.
