6121. SIXPENCE

SIXPENCE
I can't believe this : you're sitting around
listening to the Byrds and I'm just walking
in on another funny scene. Sweetheart of the 
Rodeo always reminds me of you  -  like 1970
or something backwards again, running in place
to flag the lagging iron. Those guys from upstate
were building the bridge, remember? They'd drive
down for every Monday morning, get drunk
enough to set to work, and stay. Union
labor never had it so good.
