Apartness
Now, just a few hours shy of two silent nights
Since the four of us ate Subway six-inchers,
Desserted on FroYos loaded with over-the-top toppings
(Both delicious delicacies
Within a boulder's throw from your home, Linda),
In the TV room, as we viewed Monsters vs Aliens,
To our absolutely rapt delight...
Now, this Tuesday evening, eating by myself, at Brio,
I realize how another seventeen hours yet separate us
From Wednesday lunch at Pumpernickles Delicatessen,
Where I'll liken our apartness to three infinities
And you, Savvy and Parker,
Will describe how time flew through time, at warp speed.
Linda, how many infinities will it have been for you?
