Black Sunday |
Tomorrow is the one day I would change for a Monday |
With freezing rains melting and no trains running |
And sad eyes passing in windows flimsy |
And my seat rocking from legs not quite matching |
Got passport, credit cards, a plane that I’m catching |
Black Sunday falls one day too soon |
The taxi that takes me will be moving so quickly |
My suitcases simply too full for the closing |
Of pants, shirts and kisses all packed in a hurry |
Two best-selling paper backs chosen at random --- |
No sign of sales-persons to whom I might hand them |
Black Sunday falls one day too soon |
And down at the airport are probably waiting |
A few thousand passengers, overbooked seating |
Time long suspended in transit-lounge traumas --- |
Connections broken and Special Branch watching |
Conspicuously standing in holiday clothing |
Black Sunday falls one day too soon |
Pick up my feet and kick off my lethargy |
Down to the gate with the old mood upon me |
Get out and chase the small immortality |
Born in the minute of my next returning |
Impatient feet tapping and cigarette burning |
Homecoming one day too soon |
And back at the house there’s a grey sky a-tumbling |
Milk bottles piling on door steps a-crumbling |
Curtains all drawn and cold water plumbing |
Notepaper scribbles I read unbelieving |
Saying how sorry, how sad was the leaving |
…one day too soon |
