Drive Ins

At drive ins
We'd not go to see
The movies,

But park
In the back row,
And abandon ourselves
To each other's pleasure

In a TR3 so small
We couldn't do
Anything serious
Over the cupped
Bucket seats and
Interfering shifter.

Later
we practiced the full
Rites of love again
And again

Learning
The habit of pleasure
For year after year,

Until we wore
Each other
Like old jackets
Molded to our curves.
