I saw the two chevy minuet in the alley

I heard Maggie call Hello to a toilet flushing

And Angie say she guesses I'm not home

Sammy laughed maybe Grandpa's napping in his chair

Eyes half open and head thrown back

His teeth slip to tempt his chin

I was a shivering bombadier when I married Maggie

Angie was eight months old when I first said Hello

She was thirteen when I lost her

When she'd grown too big to dance on her daddy's toes

And I was but what 23 in Memphis

22 through Dresden and Essen

My think weak tin canteen's bent seam's slow dribble wet

My hip with each step

I learned my airport and train station lessons in

The heavy heave and whistle of my breath

And now here I am in my own uptown closet

Alone with my cauliflower nose

On an overnight train home

Over open dirt years ago

I lost what I'd known all along

So from then on it would be only to myself

I'd belong

So is this my last stand

A call to arms to lower back and finally stop asking

Each other what's wrong

All the time
