miss you too
a beer at nine in the morning
isn’t as good as that white wine
tasted at eight forty-five.
my parents are somewhere
in jersey now
fiddling with their gps system
and looking for a crackle barrel
for breakfast.
dvorak is playing his american
and i’m trying to keep down
tears and budweiser
on an empty stomach.
i wonder what in the hell
has happened
to me.
the apartment feels too empty.
i’ve gone soft
sentimental at the close
of the decade.
my parents are racing through jersey
en route to pittsburgh
and my wife is at work.
it feels like she and i haven’t
talked for days.
i miss everyone.
dvorak is still on
antonin isn’t enough sometimes.
i’ll bet his wife felt that way too.
