I did not suspect the change about to liberate and alter me
as I purchased from Gold Circle, a big box store, a Midland c.b.:
this was an act of extortion arising out of defiance
that my parents accepted to secure my September ninth compliance.

Author's Notes/Comments:
My First Beloved, BlueShft (long black hair, sparkling eyes, a seductive but shy smile, distressed jeans and, confined in his shoes, dark blue socks) accompanied me; and that same night, his brother-in-law installed it into my Ford Pinto. Forty-nine years ago . . .
In 2027, the days and their dates of that year's summer will be exactly the same as the summer of 1976, the most transformative season of my life. I pray that, despite my failing health, God will grant me the gift of surviving through that year.
