Fire's Last Nerve

an acrostic poem

Eggplant-purple on the highway—

Carefree on the crescent, California coast,

Little do our parents know: we’re teenaged spirit chasing woes with phantom weed and gumdrop ghosts.

In our Mitsubishi Porsche Eclipse, we are young and we

Pretend we speak, and hear, and

See no evil (while we) float off Earth with moonshinebeams into the Sun...

Every now and then, I reminisce about our time in that Eclipse (and how we) got on fire’s last nerve, just for fun.
