It's a roasted pig
on Canada Day
It's beers
on a patio
and finding out about
accidentally killing
a bullfrog while
on a trampoline.
It's your friend
waking up at 6am
with only three hours sleep
so he can walk you
a kilometer and half
to catch a morning bus.
It's a lazy drunken lounging
with the lights out
in the finest disheveled
formal wear
after an Indian wedding
on a rainy Saturday afternoon.
It's lifting up her shirt
with your eyes closed
and your lips locked
and touching
her right breast
quicker than expected
It's being stuck in winter
for an eternity,
finding a lonely diner
early in the morning
your friend orders
two breakfast specials
and two pots of coffee
and you look at the waitress
and say
"That sounds good, I'll also
have two breakfast specials
and two pots of coffee."
It's running into Phlip Arima
and Allan Briesmaster
at Canada's Wonderland
while waiting in line
to ride Behemoth
they pass us on the
other side of the rails
Phlip says "This is our second time,"
and Dr.Briesmaster
uncharacteristically says
"It's such ridiculous fucking fun."
It's falling in love
with a waitress
that has just brought you
a pint of Creemore,
and Mediterrenean natchos
It's drunken text messages
while being mauled
by cougars,
It's randomly quoting
lines from all the Rocky
movies,
It's Mom giving you
a week's worth of food
telling you she loves you,
and to change those pants.
It's latte's following
an afternoon nap
it's being in an airport
eating a chocolate chip
muffin sipping on Vanilla Hazelnut
and reading an Esquire magazine,
knowing your waiting
to go somewhere
anywhere,
It's dropping f-bombs
when they least
fucking expect it,
It's spontaneously
singing the title
theme song to the Fresh Prince
and getting the whole bar involved
It's the beginning of Baba O'Reilly
and the ending scene
in Napoleon Dynamite.
It's your eyes closed
in a darkened room
with but a candle burning
it's Gregorian chant
it's pressing flesh
it's whispering Hail Mary.
It's going out for dinner
and taking that first
divine sip of house red
and finding out from the waitress
that yes indeed,
they do have pork tenderloin.
