Our Speedway
Somewhere in time
You’ll have the best
Day and a half old
Shitty-ass cup of Speedway coffee,
When you’re on your way
To a place you now call home
Coming back from the best trip of your life yet-
With the love of your life,
And it’s 2am–
nothing could be more perfect
until you step outside…
like magic it starts to snow.
Those, are the best coffees
You’ll ever have in your life.
And you’ll sit in bed,
While you write about them someday
With your husband, as he brings you snacks
Before Golden Girls
And you’ll remind him of that 2am pour,
down at the Speedway….
as you kiss him goodnight.
