two old men stand and wave their arms and hands in a gentle mid-west kata<\/p>\n
what they’ve seen and wanted<\/p>\n
whom they both might know<\/p>\n
all the change and who has passed<\/p>\n
and who’d had that surgery<\/p>\n
old friends the other didn’t know<\/p>\n
time they spent like nickels and dimes<\/p>\n
many loads a day<\/p>\n
of egg crates and bottled milk<\/p>\n
all the fish they caught<\/p>\n
the day OSHA came to the shop and shut them down<\/p>\n
for lifting thirty-seven pounds or more above your head<\/p>\n
ten years of work and now it stops<\/p>\n
and do you know Mueller down by the dam?<\/p>\n
my house is there behind the tress, so many tress<\/p>\n
some herbal thing she’s drinking to lose wieght<\/p>\n
it’s funny who you run into and who you know<\/p>\n
in Rapid City, South Dakota, a pretty slow place<\/p>\n
I heard they had some good wheat years<\/p>\n
she works for my cousin<\/p>\n
I drove truck for thirty-five years<\/p>\n
but she didn’t really advertise<\/p>\n
I haul to the cities<\/p>\n
she’s got a couple guys who spread the word<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
