nap time

the salesman
tells me about the trunk,
how big it is, what i can
load into it.
it's roomy he says.
you can pack a lot
of groceries in there,
toys for the kids.
and take a look at that
back seat,
he says opening the door.
go on. sit down.
take a seat.
corinthian leather.
they're heated, and yes,
that's a charger
and six speakers for
your music.
four adults can
fit in there.
so i get in, and lie down.
he's exhausted me.
close the door,
i tell him, i want to take
a nap now.
