Affairs
You’ve settled your affairs with
friends and relatives who
forget to call you during their
festive events though they always
invite you to funerals
you’ve settled with annoying memories
and unrealized dreams
now in peace with yourself
you put on your cap and
walk out of your prison
you turn toward shopping mall
where you’ll meet your pals and
after a game of backgammon
two coffees and three cigarettes
you’ll walk back to your house
for another long soundless night
