John Finneran
Lucy's on Days When There's Fire
September are always the days I drive home towards the fire
Figure Hiding From the Fire at the wheel
On different mountains and different hills
Over the exit to 6th street
To the left of, or behind my home
The mirrors with the fire in it
The mirror with the smoke in it
All the reflections
Snakes around the ends of the rivers
Past the laundromat with the smoke coming
Every night
I'd look over and memorize what I drove along
To look again in the morning
