Before I Had to Start Yoga.

Do you remember that day we took a ride with

Two disposable cameras,

And no destination?

Walked into buildings we weren’t allowed in like

We owned them.

In three dollar v-neck t-shirts from Walmart

In knock off Ray Bans.

We owned the place.

Funny thing is, no one told us to get out.

They nodded:

“Look, they own the place.”

Man, and I could drive.

I knew the song to play for which highway

Which grove of trees

Just how far to roll the window down

Based on smell.

I always went too fast and sometimes too slow

But when I felt it, I knew how to go.

All I ever needed was gas and one hand

Or a knee

On the wheel.
