Honorable Mention
Desperate
Sean Matthews

I must be getting desperate 'cause
I don't even want a girl to sleep
with anymore, just somebody to sit
in the passenger seat of my car
driving home late at night
from the theater or the tomato
factory or the grocery store I can
imagine her sitting there
fidgeting with her invisible hair
we stop at red lights and she
stares at the moon (which is purple)
then remarks "we forgot oranges"
except it's okay we'll get them
next time and we keep driving
she keeps staring at the moon
(which is actually a little more
pink than purple) and says
things like "the leaves are
tiny oars rowing in the wind"
always the poet I reward her
with a Jolly Rancher (last
one) we keep driving in my
old blue car with three
new tires, getting somewhere
under a crazy-colored moon
