BEFORE AND AFTER 


Before, she
imagined
it would be

everything --
the sun at
Summer's Beach,

wind in her
hair, a taste
of ocean,

stars in the
soft darkness.

After, she
wondered, Is
that all it

is? He gets
want he wants
and I might

get pregnant?
We know that
innocence

is always
a long way
from wisdom

and now, yes,
she knows too.
