april 16th

I was thinking about 
those giant
BELT BUCKLES
that were
popular when I was a kid

& then I saw you
in some wrangler boot cut jeans
this elaborate toolwork belt
with the enormous 
BUCKLE 
your shirt
instead of being a western shirt 
was a kinda drapey
SILK
muscle shirt
& a straw hat --- like generic cowboy hat shape 
not spaghetti western flat
BUT 

it MIGHT 
have been 
trampled by something 
& then forced back into shape
& you are in that
james dean in giant
POSTURE 
that's either completely relaxed indifference
or arranged to show off attributes 
to elizabeth taylor 

I'm not sure WHY

goodnight sweetheart I LOVE you VERY much
