the corner store with no parking

what hasn't the corner
store
been over the years?
it sold mattresses at one
point, then
auto parts. it
was a Korean grocer
twenty years ago,
then
a place to have your
taxes done.
a deli,
a sandwich and coffee
shop,
a business
to have your nails manicured,
a massage parlor,
and bikini
wax emporium.
a barber pole
once spun outside,
and then
a Chinese restaurant
appeared.
buffet all you could eat.
it's been closed and open
more times,
than i can count.
and now, a new sign is
up.
The Zen Center.
kumbaya.
i wish them luck.
