The Feast of Saint Stephen as Observed at the Truck Stop

 

On the occasion of meeting a friend

for breakfast on the Feast of St. Stephen

 

Now the overpass looked down

On the Feast of Stephen

With some garbage strewn about

Moldy and uneven

Brightly shone the neon light

Though the frost was cruel

When a poor man came in sight

Pumping diesel fuel

 

(This is gonna be one of the Greats, eh!)
