Harvest Moon and the Peeping Toms

i remember getting
high the first time
with a kid
programmed
to run home at
the sound of a bell.

i remember imagining being
covered in autumn
leaves a caterpillar
making an example
of time.

i remember "Lou
give me a milk...
chocolate"
and "Loraine...
i'm your
density...
i mean...
destiny".

i remember listening to
the secret track
on sgt. pepper
with jon and
alanya on lsd.

i remember being in graduate school
high enough
to believe
where the sidewalk ends
was an innovative and original thought
when i reached a point
where the sidewalk ended.

i remember my grandfather
and norma giving
me
a remote
controlled airplane
attached by a cable,

and being too
young to
conjure
the reply
i was looking for.

i still remember the one
and only one
true
beehive
hairdo ever
in my life
in second grade.
