Go Hornets

the reunion
has been cancelled,
the note
says.
ernie, not his
real name,
has come
down with shingles.
he was
organizing
the music
and the food,
and was providing
the space
in his backyard.
unfortunately
there is no
one else
to take his place.
in fact,
out of four hundred
and thirty seven
invites, only
six responded,
two of which said,
maybe.
so, with our
regrets,
I am Ernie's wife,
linda,
we hope to see
you in five
years, at the next
reunion.
go Hornets.
