![]() AlohaA Poem by Donald Meikle![]() There was a support pole in the cellar next to the pool table. He worked nights, I worked construction. Rainy days were two or three hundred games of eight ball. He died on Father's Day.![]() Helluva pole shot Coke Father's Day will never be the same Oddly enough I'm half glad y'gone What's it been Almost thirty years of depression? and most of that in a wheelchair That you chose to sit in But on the brighter side It kept me sane and helped me see the cliff edge I know you're glad it's over leaving me full of if only wasn't planned We had some of the finest moments Fishin' Shootin' pool Sleepin' over at World's End All Past Still © 2015 Donald Meikle |
