I see my pretty alice in every head light

what is true
I love you
the look of love,
and I think of the adoring faces of the women at the Nazi parade at Nuremberg
I know what love is
I love my dog
(ah caught my self in a lie) I don’t have a dog she belongs to Elke, the little tawny bitch that loves to ride.
Another fantasy I get back on my wheels and one day just by chance I run into you at a beat little mom and pop truck stop in the Arizona desert, Tonopah Joe’s and Alice’s.
this is just shadow boxing in text boxes
I don’t ever want to meet you
I would play the fool or faint
the part where I want to see you happy in work and love
the part that wants you to find another fearless heart
and the part of me that hopes there is another woman in this world not young enough to be my grand daughter
with a bold heart and a hard head
even so, I ache for you
so that
I want to learn the loving tongue
