MY FRIEND, STAMINA PUERILE
Could be a guy, could be a girl; those old
Latin names with their funny endings are
supposed to tell you. But not this one. It's
maybe Staminus, or it's maybe Stamina;
like Fistula or Fistulus. You make up your
own mind. 'Round about the one o'clock
bustle, just after, in late afternoon. That's
the time of day I always hate the most.
-
Seemed like, if ever I had a lousy appointment
or a time to be somewhere, it was always at
'1:30pm'. Worse time of the day - the Summer
sun has rolled overhead and the pithy heat is
come a'broiling. No time to stretch in this hour
or wretch. Doctors, dentists, lawyers, cons;
they all used 1pm.
