I am one of those
'where do all these people come from, it's Sunday for Christ's sake' people,
as such I shouldn't moan too much
but
everywhere is so crowded
we're breathing in small talk
exhaling but can't walk fast enough
to get away,

it's Sunday but I said that already
and
already I'm tired of it
perhaps
if I prayed a bit harder
that might get me
an extra yard or two
might get me out of this zoo

which reminds me of
you know what and
what knows who
and someone's on third base.
