Blue Oyster Cult

a $5 footlong at Subway
before a meeting
on Thursday

Burnin' For You came on the speakers

i wanted to call you

say
i am sorry
while i still could

but i didn't

assuming you didn't want to hear it
and i would have understood
if you didn't

a resentment is a tough habit to give up

like a scar
you get used to it
and cannot imagine yourself
without it

but if you were right about there being a God

if you were right about there being an afterlife

i hope you have heard me
playing Don't Fear The Reaper
all day
