Boardwalk, 1982
She was a cute girl,
dressed up in Belinda Carlisle wanna be Go Go gear,
representing the best of the beach in the early 80's.
Everything I wanted to see, everything my hormones wanted to cheer on,
like a painted fat guy at a Buffalo Bills football game.
Her blonde bob, bangles, and apple dappled cheeks bounced through the boardwalk, high on candy.
It was a moment of Kronos in my 13th year of life, unforgotten, unforgettable, unrequited.
