AM Radio
Fuzz and humm.
King Biscuit Flour Hour
Casey Kasem or Wolfman Jack delivering
the Saturday Night Special.
A rasp of air, call letters,
Needle drop, amplitude buzzes
In our ears, midnight fellowship
against dark blue skies.
The sound and voice of moonlight
unravelling along this long-winding road.
Tires hiss-hum in harmony,
plotting a route home. We stir
Under lightning crackle on AM Radio
Windshield wipers squawking.
The static sound between radio stations
Keeps us seaching tonight -
Wolfman Jack is silent.
