Bill Inge
it started
as a pic
nic for
two
we ate
sunshine
and absorbed
more then enough
food to fill four
swooning
couples
well
at least
for me being
the swooner and
she playing the part
of the swoony who
in an act of anger
makes a scene
and leaves
leaving me
to make the toast
of tea that she will be
always with me using the
almost foreign forever word
in the ending soliloquy
as i gather the four
corners of our
plaid empty
blanket world
tie it to the end
of a stick walking
while whistling now
a silhouette into
a lonely hobo's
sunset
