Moment / 2007 — rehash

Moments in time

Specific, lucid, endearing

I was just after work

At the biofuel gig in the city

Out in the back lot

Talking with co-workers

It was a gorgeous early Indian Summer eve

The light was golden

The sky blue with calm puff float clouds

No breeze

Even a bit muggy

I am in black from head to toe

Black skinny chinos tucked into

Tall, tall, high heeled frye boots

A buttery brown

A black sheer short sleeve button front blouse

Untucked, but lady like, with a black camisole underneath

My hair is still a bright blonde then

Down and tousled past my shoulders and more rocker chick, than professional secretary

My co-workers are a variety of ages and backgrounds

Right now in the lot, it is the other secretary who is from UK

She is sassy and brilliant and smart as hell

There is also a younger dude that is funny and edgy and new to the world of business

We had taken a drive looking at office space together a few days ago, and I had wound down the window, and put my feet up on the side view.
