wonder-boy

it was th sounds made after you stopped talking that night on the phone. like breathing through fog. i kept wondering what you were thinking about and who you were going over it with, how it was rounding out, folding up and maybe, this way it'll turn you on the way it only can when it's so right and loud as a tractor-trailor pulling the lincoln memorial behind it. i kept thinking about what you were thinking. we'd been trading catchphrases or maybe just words for a while and going through the line-up, of things people say to each other when they're not saying what they mean. i meant you. and i kept wondering what you were thinking about. so you were quiet, breathing for a couple minutes and then we clicked "end" on our phones and that was it, that was all and i laid there wondering what you were thinking. i guess i'm still wondering.
