Jennifer Love Hewitt's tits are spilling over (again)

: desire

black umbrellas are open wide

tourists are carrying their Macy's bags

I am remembering Nantucket

A man is stopped to look into a window

where there is a clothed mannequin man seated

watching a naked mannequin woman

her dress pooled around her fine plastic ankles

It's an ad about an ad man

looking in at a plastic couple

: desire

In Nantucket, ice clung to sea like a dry lip stuck to

Fran Drescher is Happily Divorced

: hope

In Nantucket, we were the most grown we'd ever been

we didn't fight

not once

They said...you didn't finish high school, you're not going ANYWHERE

: fear

Still, in Nantucket we learned to make coffee from a single cup brewing system

individual plastic containers (what waste)

I said...I'm going to finish college, I'm going SOMEWHERE

: hope

In Nantucket, we learned

Don't let impotence ruin your sex life

: hope

Improve bad credit

: hope

The wind in Nantucket shook the whole of the house

Inside was

: desire

You wouldn't go to the top of that house (for the wind)

even though from above one could see the whole of the sea

It's ok

From below I know

in Nantucket

you tended our fire

: hope

I love the rhythm of this. And I love the fact that it makes me long to go to Nantucket.
