"A dance was set for Saturday;

All my friends were going.

I had my ticket and my plans,

but I surely wasn't glowing.

My hair was long and straggly;

I wasn't looking good.

I needed some detangler-

I wasn't looking good. "

"Moonlight sparkled on

the crystalline grains of the desert sand.

The distant dunes

Now he longed for the familiar sound

of a car driving by

or the comfort of a human voice."
