just another night drinking
some delirious thinking
in at 4 out by ?
classmates.kingslounge
old professor of mine
slamming down shots at the bar
he gave me an A in a class
I say hello
he pretends to recognize me
looks like he’s down on his luck
football game more a background thing
now basketball from the west coast
don’t like basketball
pour myself across the street
all night convenience
beef jerky and glazed donuts
bars shutting down, super-frown
walking in Memphis
with my feet on the ground
in the rain
