Questions for the Little Dipper

I count 4am stars over

the dashboard glow of our metal box and sounds of

incomprehensible heartbreak

bleeding through the stereo...

I look for the constellations that will map us out

explain the buttons

decipher the lyrics.

They're shrouded in clouds,

always moving

until they're out of sight

and I'm waiting for another night to fall

and for the dashboard to light up once more.

This time, I change the song.
