Burned Out

SURLY waiter on his tenth day in a row and a

TOUCH of a sarcastic bent not at all

SORRY for the havoc he’s gonna

WREAK on the bad tipping Applebee’s crowd.

The Mourner

BASIN in the backcountry often the site of

BAWDY activities not sanctioned by the park service, yet

REEDY bankside now quiet and holy where

VIGIL is held by solitary mourner healing slowly.
