Smoke
By
D.G. Opperwall
We sit smoking cigarettes.
It has been sunny for two straight weeks.
She laughs at something.
What? I say
Nothing
she says
just remembering.
Oh.
Shes not going to go into it.
Our cigarette-smoke blots out the sun
Ive been dying for a cloudy day she says
Gods a mysterious thing, I say
And we each take a puff.
