and sacrificed hoofed animals?
 
 Shared a bong. Said he was creepy.
 
 Major understatement, if the dude
 
 was really for real! If pot made you
 
 buddy up with Satan, you could keep it!
 
 But don’t worry. Evan’s long gone.
 
 I reached for a whiff of courage.
 
 Far fuckin’ out! Beer’s in back.
 
 We Bumped up the Road
 
 Doing 40 or so spilling some
 
 foam of summer-warmed brew
 
 and busting our guts, laughing.
 
 I watched Brendan’s muscular hands
 
 try to shift, missing gears,
 
 try to steer around potholes,
 
 not quite evading most of them.
 
 I studied his face, mentally tracing
 
 bone structure a model would kill for,
 
 high cheekbones perfect white teeth
 
 all sheathed in Mediterranean-
 
 flavored skin, iced mocha,
 
 begging to be sipped, so I did.
 
 I swear, every guy you kiss is
 
 so different. Each has a unique
 
 essence, each a significant style.
 
 Brendan was eau de lavender, vanilla,
 
 Heineken, Crest and top-notch speed.
 
 His style was “No is not an acceptable
 
 answer.” He was Bree, with a penis.
