George Foreman Made a Comeback, so the Beatles Wouldn't Have To | A Poem by Ryan Quinn Flanagan

I am not modern
and these are
modern times.

No room for scaffolding,
lets get straight to
condo fees.

I am a patient man
in the here and
now.

Expecting nothing
and wanting even
less.

If I were to die in a parking garage
I would call myself a car.

Sit parked here
on this couch for many
unfruitful hours.
