@ 27.055 MHz: Ad Astra; Was It Really Forty-Nine Years Ago, That Saturday Afternoon In July Or August? [XLIX]

So much has changed in our town's landscape; yet, where

Verging Creek is narrowest and shallowest,

that large flat rock remains submerged in just two

or so inches of water; the rock's surface

full of small fossils


defiant of time;

and on that rock, BlueShift---shoeless and shirtless---

stood, soaking in fresh creekwater the tattered

bell-bottom cuffs of his jeans and, beneath them,

his dark blue socks . . . because I asked him to do so.
