the little red transistor

the radio
meant so much to me
when
growing up.
the car radio, the little red
transistor
that i first
heard the Beatles on.
the bent
antenna,
the batteries into
the little slot.
the dial to turn
with a safe crackers
touch
to land
on the station that i
wanted.
learning the words to
every song.
from Chuck Berry
to Bob Dylan.
songs that i've
never forgot.
