attendance is measured in
viscous moments as
one of us remembers,
the other tries to forget –
and minutes pass in starched postures,
escorted by raisin bread and a clipped, “Coffee, black.”
while we wait for sugarcoated words to spell
last call.
It’s always kind of a relief to see you post, if infrequently. Always figured you have a breezy easy way with poetry, as though you don’t ever force it… gimme a bit of that!
