Going to See Dali
Driving around St. Pete
wind and rain blurring the neon signs
narrow back street
tiny bump of a hill, curve of the city's thigh,
sending us reeling into space, daredevils
maps and brochures defying their folds
faces gaping at the Hallucinogenic Toreador,
our giant pancake breakfast;
we ran with the bulls up the beach
until all the clocks had melted,
and we flared our red umbrella,
victorious over the summer.
