Old Fashioned Makeout

My ad read, remember how exciting

old-fashioned make-outs were in high school?

We kissed, standing. Her date went to sleep on the other bed.

Lying facing each other, no one had ever touched me

exactly like that, barely grazing skin. I was fully inside myself.

The sky began lightening. She rushed out,

her dog had been in all night.

She agreed to see me again. And again.

I dropped her off with a kiss

4 1/2 years later,

last night.
