unexciting, unceremonious 200th post

Of all of the grandiose,
monumental, or symbolic
statements that could
or should be made,

I'm left, today,
feeling that this world is alright,
at least through my eyes

because I've found a friend
whom I can sit in an empty
New England Dunkin Donuts
coffee shop* with,

blowing over cups
of scalding, tasteless joe,
sharing dreams,
hopes, and jokes.

This morning
I felt just like the dark,
empty middle-school auditorium
we broke into,
but after just a few hours
with you
I felt like anything was possible.

It would be nice
to have the perfect thing
to say, but

All I have is
Thank You
and
Don't Stop
and
My God, What Great
Fun To Be Alive!



*This is not a coffee shop
