Liquid Courage

They idle in the tavern,
as they have many nights before,
reminiscing about good times
and doing their best to ignore
the ticking clock above the door,
the harbinger of doom in store
for the fair-haired, mustachioed
man in the polyester suit;
the guy sucking back another
cranberry juice and Absolut.
"It's time to get ourselves en route
to the church, mister," his astute friend enjoins.

"One more," says the groom.

Which Way?

Through the valleys and over hills,
Both up and down I’d crept.
I fell asleep for I was tired,
So very long I slept.
Is it rising? Is it setting?
I must say I don’t know.
That must be east or maybe west,
Now, which way do I go?
If I just wait a little while,
It will get dark or light.
I really hope it’s rising though,
Don’t want to spend the night.
To sleep out here among the stars,
With nature all around.
On second thought I hope it sets,
I’ll sit here on the ground.
But if it’s rising I will turn,
And walk toward the west.
I really like the rising sun,
But setting sun’s the best.
