he finally got word a text that
he made it back to town
he could be irritated but Mack
was always slow on the uptake
he didnt pause to think that
others were thinking of himnot worrying thinking sevenhunred miles by car an not say Made
it six keystrokes SEND
had it been him his family theydve
ripped his head off
Who the hell do you
think you are?
different familiespriorities
chalk it up to that
the next day he alluded to
adventures Mack had mentioned but hadnt illuminated
Wha
adventures
The drive in the snow, the miles.
Thas driving
When you tantalise sling adventure Im expecting one I spent forty winters
in the Midwestfive driving a delivery truck Mack Thas just driving
Alright, alright . . I also went across a
frozen lake on a snowmobile; they’re crazy fast.
Stupid
Stupid? That doesn’t rate?
Rates stupid
Ya don recall a guy I worked
with who was an enthusiast Ice
collapsed They didnt recover his body
for six months
Fish food
No. No, I don’t recall.
But be that
as it may, prior, you wouldn’t have tried it?
No
BAM, no?
Not curious
I got issues with every sort of recreational
vehicle that tearsup the land an pisses away money gas
Speed boats.
Row Sail
Gotta have a speed boat to water ski.
Don have to
Its conspicuous consumption Wha percent of the population can afford wha yave
taken for granted your whole life
Not that ya have to apologise
Ya didnt know better
Nor
did ya think
I think . . against your better
judgment . . you’d like it.
Im not curious Im not interested
Nothing to determine
Queer how conservative you can be
when you lean so damn far left.
Mack I like wha I like dislike wha I don
Cant be cajoled or intimidated Its good to know ones mind Think lie to yourself imagine how fuckin easy it would be to lie to
others
