April 18th - Character Sketch of a Starbucks Regular

Jack of Clubs - Character Sketch of a Starbucks Regular
14 - Rondeau


Delivery

Within his truck in soft repose

Reclining, Nelson starts to doze

And dreams from deep inside his head

Deliverance from the things he said

Awakes to unfamiliar woes

In wanting to console these throes

He visits one of many hos

And throwing her upon the bed

He delivers

Once back in Brookline's muted glows

The giant man neglects his loads

Attending to the moon instead

Does Nelson, mighty arms outspread

         After the doors at Starbucks close

         He delivers

Another poem coming here tomorrow...
