Finally Together, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @brianrrs37 on twitter)
They never met
Face to face
But are finally in
Their resting place
My Buckeye mom
And my best friend
Will rest side by side
In their respective urns
Debra and Jane
Had more in common
On politics and economics
While Robert and I were peas in a pod
Bob's scruffy beard
Never bothered me
But "shave", my mom
Drilled into me every day
When face to face
On video Skype
They'd gang up on me
To get a laugh
Tis the story
Of my life
An easy tease
For family and friends
My deepest regret
Is all I have left
Are two urns
A reminder of
What did not happen.
I can imagine
Bob, Debra
John and I
At the same table
Eating mince pie
A beetroot burger
Of which I'd deny
They are chips, not french fries
Mom and all
Would gang up on me
Just like my high school friends
I'm an easy tease
But reality
Is bittersweet
Jane and Bob's ashes
Are my memories
Bob would talk
Of Sagan and Hitchens
John, Debra and Mom
Would sing Nelson and John Denver
But Ohio State
Always had my back
ABBA and Redskins
My mom was a fan
Bob would
Listen in
On an NFL
Weekend
Though the sport
Was not his thing
He'd love listening to me
Come unglued
When my Redskins
Did themselves in
Black and white reel
Of the engines colliding
Those two urns
Are my new sentries
Side by side
Bittersweet memories.
Crap, Flickr should work, it is working for me when I click on them.
One thing I noticed about bars, and high end presentation. The staff will hold up a wine or beer bottle tilted to your face so you can read the label. I don't know, it is like a male porn star showing his dick to the female performer, "Is this the cock you want?"
