Throwbacks

Somewhere you and I remember we came. Stairways from the sea and our heads dripping. Ladders of dust and mud and our hair snarled. Rags of drenching mist and our hands clawing, climbing. You and I that snickered in the crotches and corners, in the gab of our first talking. Red dabs of dawn summer mornings and the rain sliding off our shoulders summer afternoons. Was it you and I yelled songs and songs in the nights of big yellow moons ?
