My View From The Road In A Heavily Fortified Vintage Camper, In Honor & Remembrance Of The Late Great Gonzo Himself, Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (1937-2005)

2 People
What is it about a big open sky
full of stars
that can make 2 people who otherwise
don't share anything together
able to open up (just a little)
and talk far into the night?
I'll never forget that night
one of those magical moments
you pressed close to me
like a toy refound after a long time gone.
That night is over now
but the memory of it lingers even still
Even now that we're back to our stilted
awkward friendship
I can say to myself that
I remember a time when I had you
all to myself
under the stars
wrapped in a blanket
sitting on a rock on the side of a
mountain.
And you allowed me a peek
behind your mask.
