I've Said It So Many Times

the world is a funny sunset...

one of my best friends
Marlon called me today
after another old friend
asked me out of the blue
how's Marlon doing
and when was the last time
I head from him.

shrieked, I was happy
and wondered if Marlon's ears
were ringing hot and loud,
but his Jamaican roots
didn't get the reference,
no matter.

it was good to hear his voice
and have him con me,
we talked about Gabe
and he didn't believe me
when I said Mary asked about him
moments ago.

the world is a funny sunset
because it makes thing
like this
happen.
