(at the café)

Curious Greg wears glasses
sits sideways in a chair
sliding his fingers
along his coffee cup
talking loudly
about the Megahertz’s
and all their friends
and relatives
I'm believing his watch
must be his CPU

He looks at me
as if I’m something
caught in his throat
so naturally
I think of introducing him
to the Heimlich’s

(and all their friends
and relatives)
