Prom NightFireflies flash
in the faded autumn light
and burst in auroras
on fogged car windows.
The desire within
is oblivious to the show,
mindful only
of the steering wheel
and the finish line.
The darkness waits,
patiently, until
the lovers are sated.
Soon enough
it will invade,
like the doubt
that comes with sunrise.
