Young Marines in Yuma .circa. 1982
Young Marines in Yuma .circa. 1982 His fist was coming from somewhere in the deep South...Mississippi maybe...bringin' me some Delta Blues. "This is gonna hurt" I thought just before impact...and I was right. I fell forward and grabbed him in a Death-Grip as we crashed to the ground. A whole damn hive of Hornets buzzin' in my<b> head. </font></b>All I was tryin' to do was smother any further damage....no way was I gonna be concious if Reece found another one of those widow-makers in him. We were rolling around in the dust and gravel parking lot of a club known as "The Backroom". One of two joints in Yuma that played live Rock n Roll. We Marines had affectionately re-christened it "The Bathroom". Reece and I had been at it for about Five minutes when the bouncers broke it up muttering somethin' about "dumb Jarheads" and hating pay-day week-ends. We looked at the mess we'd made of each other...the desert dust mixing well with our snot and blood...and we both laughed like to Fools. "C'mon Reece, I'll get ya a beer,she's probably gone by now". "Ya" he says "but man, she sure was fine". We staggered back into the Club talking about Sky-Lit Cleavage and an Ass you could bounce a quarter off of. Two cavemen chasing Women on Pay-Day week-end...and the best of Friends. |
