he wears a red shirt that matches her scarf.
it’s not on purpose, they weren’t on purpose.
i read a silly poem at their wedding.

back-seat-sitting,

and his chin’s-a-dublin laugh sets in,
he starts whistlin a young man’s song.

“thats what i love about you” she says. 

i’m just along for the ride.
