A MILTON MUNCH

JR - Drove through alternate sessions of rain and lesser rain - The petrol tank often running close to empty - Silly - Coffee consumed - And ate a steak sandwich in the short town of Milton - Good cut of meat but the onions weren't caramelized like they said they'd be - A couple of pies for the road from another place further down - Okay and a slice of cake - And more coffee came with the stamp - Then briefly talked with the counter cut clerk about forever leaving our loved ones behind in the murk - Before realizing we were both working on different planes - And then drove through a quietly cushioning rain further down into a land where steak and olive tapenade blended with the inexplicable need to ask permission for something specific I could not recall - Otherwise well - LA
