from the pensieve

her first was sky blue
we were four inside, plus one
in the middle of a bridge
stranded in the night
to continuous doppler honks
it wasnt any good
and there wasnt another
for the longest time
until she hung up the stirrups
and this one was gray
sealed and safe and untried
and it delivered, without
her at the wheel
and its now my turn
to not be any good
to not have been
for many many years
at what I loved doing
beyond reason, without filters
it does things
