i'll start without them

I plan a feast for the night.

inviting all my imaginary friends.

sally, joe, vanessa, slim jim and jane doe.

they're all light eaters, so more for me.
I light some candles.
put some music on.

I put a bottle of asti spumante on ice.

they should be here any minute now.
I should get out of this old ratty robe,
these flip flops.

I should take a shower, brush my teeth.
take the pizza out of the oven.

it will be a night to remember.
the stories that will be told.

I look out the window, not yet, but

they're always late, maybe i'll start
without them.
