My Nineteenth
Birthday
Celebrating
my nineteenth birthday
My mom
invited my best friend and the boy next door
After
eating lasagna and cake
We took
a walk on the moonlit night up Wild Cat Road
The guy knew
his way around the woods
We
walked together, talking and laughing all the while
At one
point we were way off the road
We came
upon a building lit up with a street light
We had
wound up at the State Game Lands
He tried
to make us think we weren’t supposed to be there
He
started running and we ran too
He laughed,
thinking he had fooled us into worrying
We were
just trying to catch up
We knew
his B Movie story lines when we heard them
