Hello’s

~ T M Mulligan

I am in limbo

One foot over here

And the other there

I’m a fence sitter

And a wall flower

A packet of seeds

Waiting to be planted

An ear of corn

Boiled buttered and salted

Just waiting just waiting

For the scratchy announcement

Over the loud speakers

Goodbyes have been said

It’s time to depart

And to say hello’s
