Words:  smells, shots, nailing, body, vibrating, facts,
        hesitation, brushed, miss, rain, leak, cut 


She still misses
smells of cooking
in her apartment
building–robust scents
of stuffed cabbage,
Italian sauce bubbling
in a tall pot, and fried
chicken aroma leaking
from under the door of
5G.  

The two teens would cut
through the staircase
with its loose nails
sticking up, shoot up
onto the roof, and pray 
it didn't rain.  Without
hesitation, he would brush
up against her body, set
it to vibrating in a young
love shiver of icy heat.  Oh,
those stolen moments.  She
still misses those smells of 
cooking, but the fact is, 
she misses her first exploration 
of forbidden love, more.
