The Tiki Room

We stood on the edge of the stairway at Disneyland and watched the fireworks.
They're loud, really loud.
And they're stunning. 

He pointed his finger at me like he was shooting a gun and I wondered if he realized he made that gesture.
And I listened to his words that were spoken so quickly I could only decipher the ones that went along with his gesture.
It was pure genius.

I saw a lizard wedged between the wood on the deck and when I looked closer I recognized the body of a snake under it.
Possibly a king snake that had its stuck jaws spread around the lizard's neck.

When I came home he asked me if I wanted to drink the blood of a lizard and I thought, but I'm not a king.
