meet the Beatles

i remember

charlene

like it was yesterday.

she had a scar on her face

from where a horse

kicked her,

but was very pretty just

the same.

i remember that she had

tickets to go

see the 
Beatles playing at

the D.C. armory on their

first tour of

the USA.

she told everyone.

waved them around

in our faces.

she said things like i'm

going and you're

not. ha ha. loser.

Paul's my favorite, she'd

say.

i'm going to marry him.

we thought she was crazy,

but she was still very

pretty just the same.
