soup

tru
i was saving that pie for a special occasion,
which turned out to be the day
our fridge stopped working.

-how do you plan to fix this issue?

-it’s actually quite simp– oh, right, i see what you’re saying.

strictly business
i saw tommy davidson at the grocery store.
he had short, gray hair
and reading glasses being supported,
just barely,
by the tip of his nose.
he kept repeating
“it was the big one, nigga”
into his cell phone.
again: “it was the big one, nigga.”
i wanted to let him know what a huge fan i was,
but i’m pretty sure his response
would’ve been
“what?”
