i moved down the street
across the pub you've done your drinking at
the new guy's sorry to say
your name doesn't ring a bell
                                                  guess five minutes is five munites now
As time ticks by this night
seconds turn to munites, then to hours
my anxiety grows with every second

But why?

A simple meeting
nothing more than just that
but still, my blood rushes when I think of it

Perhaps it is the worry that I will make a mistake
or they will not like me

or is it
the possibility
I can continue the tradition
for another generation?
