 | Act Like Old Friends
by Gregory Wilde  /  poetry  /  6 Sep 2007
You've come a long way,
Honey,
From those years,
At school,
Mature and lip gloss,
It suits you well.
Can we go out tonight,
To a concert in the park?
I'll come by at nine,
We'll blow and get stoned,
Dance to the garden:
It'll be like the days of old.
The snow will keep us warm.
The Hamptons, honey,
It keeps you young;
Does your husband know?
I'm from another cascade,
Do you want to come along?
Our government is lies,
Come on, honey, say goodbye.
