old school old times

I think it was probably
Jackson Browne,
the original emo hero,
who compared a heart
to a fist,
and all these years later,
Jackson, I can't resist
takin' that one out
for another spin,
maybe on the back of
a flatbed Ford, Mr. Frey,
but dammit
I am so overcome
by the Wifey,
who I wronged so badly,
that I just need
a Bob Weir miracle
today.
