Standing in the Rainbow

Standing in the Rainbow



I know of a boy living next door

to a man . . . he’s a big man whose youth has

faded and now he jiggles with each step



he labors as a bartender with two jobs

. . . rising at dawn and eating after

everyone is in bed



in the early morning silence he plops down in

front of the TV . . . lost to his thoughts . . .

neighbors think he’s lazy but truthfully he’s

just tired



he is my best friend’s father

and I know . . . not everyone lives life

standing in the rainbow.
