With two more jiggers of gin by the pool
And a twisted lime, he thinks of the soul,
That hardly definable absolute,
Daunting with those Friday night questions,
Like God and shopping centers on Sunday:
"Those goddam 'mauls' open on Sunday."
But Bunker Hill Propane takes its toll
For BBQ blue flames hot at twilight.
We all like our steak pink in the center,
And Sparky's barking....
"Oh, Christ!
I forgot.
Hey, Marge! Let the goddam dog out!
No. Last night."

That hardly definable absolute, good lines

emma_tateover 14 years agoand I hate that I missed it when it was first posted. Full of emotion and humor. Loved it!
GuiltyPleasureabout 15 years agoWe may not be drinking gin by a pool but we've all had these moments. I admire this poets fearless self-exposure. If this isn't autobiographical I apologize...well, not really.<p>
