German Boy

German Boy

A Poem by kimpetersen13kp
"

Bene Scholtz---just Bene Scholtz.

"
Convenience store camera footage pictures. 
Diesel ribbed sweaters. 
Vintage doc martens. 
Digital Sony cameras. 
Chamberlain iced matcha lattes. 
Germany during the cusp of winter. 
The boys and their antics. 
Staring at you from across the skatepark. 
Vans Off the Wall bamboo longboards. 
Call Me By Your Name: The Movie. 
Andre Aciman---just Andre Aciman. 
And Rooney. 
And Madeline Miller. 
Bruised knees. 
Nikey athletic socks. 
Cling-wrap cold ham sandwiches. 
The sun during high noon. 
Curly hair routines. 
Prada runaways is Milan. 
iPhone Pro 13 Max. 
Versace coat on the mahogany headboard. 
Last season's Glamour magazine. 
Electric cigarettes 
and liquid Lichi Raspberry flavor. 
The end of the world. 
Your MacBook Pro in the corner of the hotel room. 
Dystopic fiction. 
Pedigree Dobermans. 
Tommy Hilfiger boardshorts. 
Your parents' house. 
VirginActive gym subscriptions. 
Casio watches. 
Personalized necklaces. 
The feeling of falling. 
Coffee-stained cafe cups. 
Your baby photos. 
Neon tattoo parlor signs. 
Ikea furniture. 
Probiotics. 
Boybands and live shows. 
Your autograph on that one poster. 
Arcade games. 
The pavilion. 
Middle-grade fiction. 
Prada oxfords. 
Old money. 
Salmon cereal boxes. 
Spotify playlists. 
Never wanting to grow up. 
Bilingual. 
German pancakes. 
Sunlight filtering through the curtains. 
Social media videos. 
Wet swimsuits. 
Falling asleep on the beach. 
The southern coast. 
Boycotting enemy companies. 
Elevators and their significance.
