After Freshman Year

I had almost a week delay before my last final,
So I moved home, then went back to
Boulder for 24 hours to take my physics exam and
Celebrate my year with my friend Wendy.

We watched Amadeus and walked
And ate and talked until late in the night. I loved it all.

Years later I heard what happened while
I blissfully rode the bus home.
Wendy, prostrated by my frenetic energy,
Sat immovable in her most comfortable chair.

Phil stopped by and asked, “What happened to you?”
“Amy Holzmann happened. I’m so tired.
Have you met her?
I could see you two together.”
