Orion's Belt - from "Northwest Passage," pilot episode

Dirt path - night,
a sharp crest,
the surface of the highway
steers them off the side of the road and
up through the woods.
She slides her arms around him -
tenderness in her gesture
when you least expect it.
Looking up, Orion's best over-awed
to understand the good reason
for tonight,
threat, relief approaching.

The girl is amplified,
never saw so many stars.
