Parking Structure

I drove past
the old parking
structure
it had been
torn down
and my heart let
out a little gasp and a silent
sigh
in our early days
when we couldn’t
go to her place
or my place
because other obligations
were there
for a brief
intoxicating
moment
we’d park in a
structure
and we’d kiss and
caress and
make love
hiding in plain sight.
The best parking structures
were the busy ones
at the courthouse
where you had
to pay to get in
in those, everyone was
too consumed with trying
to find a space
and get on with
their business
and they had
no time to waste looking for
pulled down pants
breasts exposed
tongues darting
closed eyes
we’d pay our 50 cents
find a spot
and go at it
50 cents
the cheapest motel
of all
but times have changed
and we now have
the privacy of our
marital bedroom
and it is a different excitement
but still
there’s nothing quite like
making love in public
as cars drive by
knowing that
each one of them
is too busy looking
for a parking space
to notice
young new
wet slippery
nervous awkward
love
they were in their
businesslike hurry
to quickly park
make their deals
cash their checks
make their transactions
and get richer
but I’m sure
every one of them
would’ve traded places
with me
in a heartbeat.
