one or two scoops?

i see old Sleepy Joe,
the ex pres,
at Baskin
and Robbins, not as a customer,
but now he's
working full
time behind the counter.
he's unburdened by
what has been.
he has on his brown
beanie and
a pink smock
covered in melted ice cream,
drippings of chocolate
sauce.
in one hand
he's holding a scooper,
while in the other hand
he's holding
a sugar cone with three
free
scoops of
butter brickle on top.
no joke. not kidding man.
