At Ponce Suites (Kublai Cafe) Poem by RIC BASTASA

At Ponce Suites (Kublai Cafe)



I arrived late for
dinner

but i still had that
empty chair for me

which i took
with ease as though

it is by all intents
for the moment mine

there is too much
on the plate which i

did not eat, too much
on my glass

the night is deep
and shallow with its

irony of lesbians
singing

and kissing and
drinking

as they fill that room
forgive me

i am still a hand
skewed as i hold

my own bottle of
beer
