It was an indecisive afternoon
already we had spent an hour
in deliberation
perhaps to give ourselves relief
from the overly dictated school day
I threw out suggestions absent-mindedly
kicking the dead grass by the curb
our dissatisfaction with each of them
seemed to satisfy us well enough
Even once I had climbed into the driver's seat
a stillness hung between us
like the one suggestion both would agree on
but neither wanted to make
to drive and drive 'til we were lost
but I pulled up to a Denny's instead.
