Dave and Buster

Today I lost my in-law's dog
and an old friend from the liquor business

the friend by accident

the dog
like most good old dogs
and most good old people
just got tired

lied down
and didn't get up

the cats start fighting

yowling and growling

I pour a Benchmark neat

and listen to the kids play basketball

then Mingus pisses on the plant

If you listen to the dead

they tell you to move on

So here I go fellas

here I go

goodnight Dave

goodnight Buster

sorry plant
