poem of the day 01.07.10

another old one. have poems to type up but life has been
a clusterfuck as of late.

bartender

i’m on to you
man.
i buy three rounds of
drinks
and you buy the fourth
when i’m ready to
leave.
so i stay
and have that free one.
then i have two more with money
i know i needed for
something else.
by this time the sun
is setting.
i finally get up to leave,
your big fat tip resting
on my soaking coaster,
to great the evening,
my mind unsure about
everything i meant
to do
that day.
