Wallet |
I found a wallet |
I found a wallet |
Inside were pictures of your small family |
You were so young |
Your hair dark brown |
You had been born in nineteen fifty-three |
Your winter birthday |
Was stamped on the plastic |
Of a license so recently expired |
I was so tired |
As I walked through my door |
I laid all the contents of your wallet on the floor |
And like a holy relic |
Or a mystery novel |
I thumbed them in the dim light |
Searching for a clue |
A Blockbuster card |
An old stick of Juicy Fruit |
A crumpled receipt |
From a pair of leather boots |
I have no wallet |
I have no wallet |
I keep my cards together with a blue rubber band |
And with a free hand |
I search in my pockets |
For pieces of, pieces of paper and change |
I’ll take your wallet |
To my local Blockbuster |
They’ll find your number |
In their computer |
You’ll never know me |
I’ll never know you |
But you’ll be so happy |
When they call you up |
