II
I was behind her in the line,
buying you a half decent bottle of wine
and behind me was one
of my oldest friends
a seaman, kindly and patient
and we had the moment of a transaction
to catch up
-- instead of McEwans's Rum,
a big bottle of wine
and right in front of us
was Alice Munro
buying a mickey of gin
