Although Paul Simon’s song
was just about to play
We closed the door behind
our backs – and walked away
into the drizzly rain.
Perhaps it was right then
that I could cease to look
for reasons that would justify
my presence in your life,
and just be there instead.
Perhaps it was right then
that I could find in you,
My friend, my long-lost pal,
as Al can call her Betty
and Betty calls him Al.
