Guidos on the Boardwalk

insomnia at the beach,

what a dangerous combination,

it all comes to an end;

vacations,

dreams,

youth,

life;

in the morning

old lovers walk the beach,

holding hands

as young yuppies

ride bikes on the boardwalk,

jogging or walking very fast;

the important thing

is to look like

you’re going somewhere;

you can tell the Guido yuppies,

pulling their screaming Guido kids

in carts behind their Guido bikes,

whizzing by at 50 mph,

straight ahead,

making everyone else

watch out for them;

just a little house,

a boardwalk

and an ocean;

is that asking for too much?
