a long walk

Is the car paid-off?, the old man looked at the bill…waving in a shaky hand…

no pop…you still owe…that note will outlive you…

we’re gonna have a talk, Texas swagger came into play, That car should be done with, he quietly mumbled, They don’t know who their fuckin’ with, slamming the monthly bill down on a Shaker table…

dad…dad….we’ll deal with it…we’ll deal with it…

everybody’s always wantin’ money, he groaned, They can keep that damn car…they can keep the house…they can keep it all…

what’re you gonna do dad?

go for a walk…a long walk…
