Waiting


At least it’s not like waiting for Godot: well there’s 
sanity in where we wait, we didn’t need create an 
atmosphere or avid mates and ersatz reputations
for equating personal dreams; a theme is missing 
where the empty air resounds a-drone in epithets, 
there’s space to wear the loneliness which will be 
filled - perchance she’s feeling much the same or 
warily proclaiming it upon her way back home 

It’s in that frame of providence which we digress - 
our conversation wrests th’ view eschewed; she’ll 
soon appear we say, there is no way she’d let it’s 
imminence be sullied or delayed; so that’s where 
we leave Godot to wallow in its wake, their torpid 
conversation played th’ theme into an early grave 

But hark - I think we hear her car - she’s here …
