Bed & Breakfast Open for Business
Getaway from the city
or whatever workaday world
surrounds you
Slow things down
by way of
Italian vegetable soup
and tapioca pudding
There are trails out back
reminding you
of wars long fought
and strategies undeployed
certain memories retained
others lost in recesses
of prior lives
What have you to
go back to
now that you’ve found
this place
where cold showers
and
made-to-order breakfasts
jumpstart your day
This business of
nothing but business
can only get you so far
or so you
interestingly
begin to tell yourself
october two thousand seventeen
