Night In The Wilderness |
|
I could he sitting on the left of you. |
|
You'd be looking straight ahead. |
|
If I was adrift right across from you, |
|
you still would cut me dead. |
|
I've had better deep discussions |
|
with this plate of soft-shelled crab. |
|
I'd put some spice in your rice. |
|
You'd give me blues in the stew. |
|
I'd give you catfish jumping. |
|
You'd give me all this work to do. |
|
Who's got the cheque on this hot dinner? |
|
Who's got the tabs on the crab? |
|
Another night in the wilderness: |
|
should have been a night on the town. |
|
Lesson in learning how to hold a conversation down. |
|
I'm in splendid isolation, feel that heavy silence fall. |
|
Got all this cut out for me to do. |
|
Another night in the wilderness of you. |
|
Here I am drinking you with my eyes. |
|
You're looking at the gravy on my bib. |
|
I go weak-kneed at the suggestion of you. |
|
What's wrong with the cut of my jib? |
|
Is there a lobster in the offing, or just a fifty dollar cheque? |
