Coffee shop conversations
Are always interesting,
He said his problem or
Advantage, depending on
Which way you looked at it,
Was that he took watching all
Those Route 66 reruns to heart
And his life became a collection
Of new towns, new cities, new
Jobs, new adventures, new women,
Fuck I even bought a two seater
Ragtop he smiled,
Looking
off
Into his yesterdays,
Silent
for a few moments,
His eyes closed,
Yes, I fell in love hard
A couple of times,
Thought about settling down,
But each time I did
That damn song rang in my ears
And I was in my car
Heading down the road.
What are you driving now?
An 84 Winnebago,
I’m leaving soon as the
Head gasket is fixed.
Wouldn’t it be cheaper
To buy another vehicle?
Memories my man,
This one has memories.
