Pink Lemonade or Scenes From A Cheep Mexican Restaurant
colonels chicken burning
springy rhythms float without warning
across a grandfathers tired eyes sky
and yes,
pink lemonade is fine
asphalt intentions
covered another mans dreams
of being something he wasn’t born to be
while brothers gibb remind me of when
i wanted to be someone’s everything
and yes,
pink lemonade is fine
box car injunctions
fill the courts of motorist puppeteers
scurrying to get anywhere as the clouds
of yesterdays tornado pass along singing
“go away, come again some other day”
and yes,
pink lemonade is fine
it’s fine for me
if it’s fine for you and a solitary man
who receives a call
silent he sits and listens to a voice
he can’t forget existed, but once dreamt was silent
and yes,
more pink lemonade please
age of innocence
before my eyes
or just a vision of words that
once swirled in my psyche
trying to convince me that i was empty
on the days that love couldn’t find me
hidden in the nightmare of tears that wouldn’t come
and yes,
the pink lemonade was fine
