THOUGHTS

Behind the counter at work
I stand
My thoughts of you interrupted
By customers demands for this or that.

Disjointed thoughts upon a page
Strung together
By thoughts of you
So far away.

Thoughts broken endlessly
By cigarettes, gas, and beer
Icees and directions given gladly to all
In return for peace and quiet
And thoughts of you.

Seconds pass like hours
Minutes like days, hours like weeks
As poetry fades leaving only
Thoughts of you.
