On the front porch of the guy you never dated
but who kissed you on your birthday when your
boyfriend lived in Japan, and told his friends he
wished his girlfriend were more like you (you were
drunk then, too, which is still a nice memory even
now) someone gave you a cheap beer that tastes
like the can and it's before the birthday where the
boy will kiss you, or maybe after, but he's got the
ping pong ball in his hand when you tell him
close your eyes
and when he wins it feels like he's grabbed you by
the waist and spun you the way they do in movies
but you haven't moved, you have warm beer in your hand
and you'll still be spinning when you're the one he'll call
back when he goes missing and you wonder if it'll ever stop
spinning if you never really said goodbye.
