She met her old lover
on the street that night,
they ran into each other
by the corner of 77th and ‘Dam,
so she told me
and after much deliberation on her part
she found herself drinking a few beers
just out of kindness,
for she thought he was still crazy
though she still loved him
after all those years.
I wish I had met her lover,
I would have warmly shook him by the hand,
for in the way he dismissed her thoughts
