More Matter of Fact

Your pizza never came.
We sat in the Hideaway
On a rainy August day
When war was in the news,
As it almost always is,
And strange omens, too,
With a group of strangers
We’d come to call friends
And listened to the music
From a drier, saner time,
Drinking pitchers of beer
And avoiding conversation.

Your pizza never came.
