My Conversation
My conversation at the gym
With my english professor
Lasted longer
Than my workout
Either indicative
Or formulative
I told him that
The navy may not be an option
Because it is a different time
And a different person

I love how the unassuming first stanza foreshadows the second. And the two-pronged conclusion. Concise and aware.
Provocative poem. Reminds me a bit of Charles Simic. Check him out.
