the waiting room


if the TV channel can satisfy
and 90s music gratifies 
ears listening for sonic boom
you know you're in the waiting room

if magazines capture your mind
giving the gift of loss-of-time
to starve the heart from all that looms
you know you're in the waiting room

if candy snacks can satiate 
your hunger for a richer fate
and the fleeting seems to end too soon
you know you're in the waiting room

if reaching for the stars you gasp
at desire just beyond your grasp
under overhead light of fluorescent moon
you know you're in the waiting room
