down the road
two old friends
drinking coffee,
eating donuts
and talking about
the past
they talk about
the past because
there is a flood
of warmth and
surety in the way
the world used
to be
they talk about
the past because
it reminds them
that they once
had a future to
look forward to
they talk about
the past because
they know that
there is no " down
the road" for either
and even if there
was
it would not be
worth the journey
getting there
