Pull out a postcard
Not enough for a letter
Try a text message
Safer than a phone call
Once more with feeling
I don’t want one
I want both
Give ‘em an inch and
they’ll take 2.54 cm
Call it even, you’re square
perpendicular right angle
Perfectly acceptable even admirable
A full bar in your office
Discouraged frowned upon illegal
A beer in my office
That’s not an empty promise
It’s the promise of an empty page
an empty cup an empty bar
As glamorous as a Quonset hut
appetizing as discarded dental floss
Pushing circles into squares
Brake pads rubbing tires low chain dry
Dehydrated toasted twice over
Just over that hill there’s
One more hill
If you want something done right
then do it right
On your left, he said
In a roundabout Seattle way
Clearly he was on my right
passively asking me to say
On your left as I passed him
But I didn’t I don’t I wouldn’t I won’t
