Travelers Welcome

the swimsuit issue came today

by J.J. Campbell

those damn dark
eyes

piercing my soul
even though you
haven't looked
my way in years

like a child i
dream about
kissing you
under fireworks
of a fading
july sun

i once had the
courage to say
hello and try
my luck

but i chickened
out when i saw
what i looked
like in leather

because anyone
as beautiful as
you only likes
the bad boys

i don't have
the money for
a harley but
you're young

plenty of time
for you to come
to your senses

and notice the
pudgy dreamer
longing over in
the corner
