the person who doesn’t have
any reason at all
is the person with the farthest
to fall

don’t patronize me,
it’s the fire station across
the street
that doesn’t have any open doors

and the pack of people
on the road
making a solid wall of liquid drinks
     (once more unto the breach)
in some big show

that I can’t pass through.
where are you

and which one of us
is here
