Lyn Lifshin

The Diner

George Segal

That guy at the
counter with broken
That guy at the
counter with broken
shoes and moaning
about literature
and such, don’t
pay attention,
it’s lies
and he knows it,
lost as sunlight
it’s just he’s
got it bad
for a girl with
fat thighs
who chews her
hands in her
sleep and
doesn’t
want him
