i miss how

i miss how after church he would say,

"wanna go get a beer,' and how,

if you're not catholic,

that probably sounds sacrilegious. and how,

if you aren't catholic,

you gotta admit that probably sounds good.


i miss how he would drop his head, sort of sheepish-like,

when he asked it......as if he knew it was a terrible sin

to mention beer

immediately after the priest says, "the Mass is ended.....go in peace

to love

and serve

the Lord."


i miss the way he would always close his eyes

when he said "the Lord's prayer" and the reason i knew he did is because

i

didn't.


i miss how, if he and i were both sick at the

same time,

how he would get out of bed and ask me, "do you want me to get you


anything?"


i miss probably seven thousand, one hundred, and twenty-two things

about him but you say,

nan. cy!...........


are you really not over him........



yet?
