Thirty Minutes

One-and-a-half minutes past seven
Blue batik by my side
Still got the blues plays on the Bose
All of the connections I might ever wish for

Except the mountaineer poet is in the bathroom
Or rather his book
The order of the day resides there
Along with the caffeine hair restorer

I never did take hallucinogenic drugs
Yet I surely was a prime suspect
But maybe I lacked a deep adventurous spirit
Safer to tell the time, talk of books and records
