Espresso martini (x2)

—-------------------------

Truffalo

Glass of


Her friend

Has just

Arrived. Shes

Older and

Conservative


And

Speaks a

Language

He doesn’t

Appear

To know


He hasnt

Looked at her

Once.

He has drunk

3 beers.

He just engaged


By accident,

Mindlessly

Toying with

Grinders,

They wonder

If he wants

To play


He tries to

Turn away

Again,

He turns to

Her voice like

She were

Far away,


Or,

He were far

Away.

He looks

Off, into his

Boredom and regret


He looks like

He doesn't

Belong in

His life,

That this

Disingenuousness

Cannot last,


That his

Whole life

Can't just be

A phase

Of

Groundlessness,

And never finding.
