I-20 west .. the very next day
packed some necessary things
made an impulsive call to colorado
let venecia know i'll be on my way
should be there in a couple of days
she kind of seemed happy
to unexpectedly hear from me
yet the slightest of tremors
was detectable in her voice
I mentioned nothing about it
I drove straight there
rarely took a break
a little over a day .. night
alamosa was in my sights
venicia met me in the town square
we'd mostly a light breakfast
drank cappuccino until noon
she dropped the bomb on me
related she's married .. on the run
from her violent .. safe-cracking husband
she'd ran off with his leased suv
been gone for nearly a month
related she'd left new orleans
on the night we'd met
at the wild dance club
you know .. I thought, geez
from the frying pan to the fire
what the fuck is wrong with me
later on during the cool day
we rode out to her home
a really large double wide home
nestled in a foot of powder snow
a mountain range backdrop
finally I met her hot friend vicky
they're roommates .. no less
they related vicky's new guy
would arrive sometime soon
details sketchy .. I discovered
Mario's a mob pilot with a dc-9 jet
flying in from peru with a load of cocaine
