Backbreaking Wait

How was your weekend?
nothing new.
what about you?

DeeCee’s party Friday—
how was it?
nothing new.
what about you?

Club Saturday—
how was it?
nothing new.
what about you?

Cleaned, did laundry,
dinner with my folks Sunday—
me too.
nothing new—

where is everybody?
when’s the train getting here?
late…again.

nothing new.
