one night in august
somehow I lost you on a hot august night
whisked away by a bevy of thirsty angels
we had just left the tic toc tavern
our wits still in tact after discussing
the absence of the sun
looking back I had seen them all along
sitting quietly at the round table
pretending to be roadies for the show
as it would seem their murmurings
had everything to do with you
and how you would guide them
to their next destination
august two thousand seventeen
