tourists

we were
in 
Greece,
off a tour bus, off a ship
in the harbor.
tennis shoes
and ball
cap,
wearing a blue
Lion's football
jersey,
while
sipping a cup of Starbuck's
coffee,
and pointing
our phones
at some marble
statue
in an ancient courtyard.
that's nice,
she says to me.
i nod.
yup.
look at that rock over
there.
a table maybe?
could be, she says.
i'm hungry. you?
they're having baklava
on the ship
today
for lunch, maybe we should
hurry back.
