Tea With Crackers
Honor me with your company at tea
Outdoors where the air is always free
A table awaits us on the railroad tracks
Have a seat facing me my good old friend
The 10:00 am bullet train is coming fast
It should arrive on time this time
Would you like some jam with crackers?
Don’t worry. Don’t look behind you
That sound you hear is your imagination
Thunder is normal this time of year
If you feel a draft just close your eyes
It will pass through you once upon a time
Impacts are funny like that
It is after ten. I fear a crash is near
Drink up while you can my friend
I’m sorry. Did I say crash?
Crackers is what I meant to say
Good day
