"He doesn't live here anymore," or so I'm told.
but he's still sitting on the couch, in the next room
"We're changing the locks," they tell me,
But I can hear him on the stairs
and I can tell he's just left the room
because no one else leaves a trail of lights and televisions left on behind them quite like him.
"Lock the deadbolt."
It's like Guantanamo
but more indecisive
Still there eh
ReplyDeletethe poem is actually like two years old, but it still rings true.
