sometimes we do our best/but even yet we fail/
our hopes they will collapse/and land us all in jail/
all we can do is hope and weep/through swollen eyes/
cursing our allergies/while joy slowly dies/

instead of relief and succor/we find only grief/
tears spill down our faces/as we rot on a lonely reef.

I saw an old Pizza Roma driver yesterday, a guy named Bear, for the first time in about twenty years.

Remember him?
