the high school reunion

the high school reunion
committee finds
me on face book.
they are relentless.
it's been fifty years, they
write, time to gather once
more and relive
those glory days.
for me it hasn't been long
enough.
there will be wheel chair
accessibility 
at Shooter McGees.
happy hour prices all night
the invite says.
bring your year book,
your letterman sweater,
your current husband
or wife.
guide dogs are permitted.
and there will
be a special menu or those
with special dietary needs,
or who can no
longer chew their own food.
we will do the school
song, and cheer, so study up.
school song?
what the hell was that.
Inngodadavida, by Rare Earth,
maybe.
