Kars -

The same people kept talking to the same people they did every time they came

With the same 'hello's and the same 'let's find a corner'

The same food was laid out and the same people were the first to tuck in

The same child that was the only child there, didn’t ask any questions

The only thing that didn’t seem the same were the wine glasses.

The glasses

seemed to have gotten wider, and taller

Wider and taller

This time I didn’t ask for a fruit juice.

This time I needed a glass of wine

This time my throat was sore

This time I asked my parent’s friends for fire.

This time, they didn’t joke

about it

The same people that recognised me from last year almost said hello.

The same person who remembered me as a child told me that he did.

Someone said

«you've grown»

Someone else said «you haven’t changed.»

A lady in the room who had dated all the important men in the room I’d never

seen before.

Before I worked this out I thought she was beautiful.

But now I just think she’s cool

This time I rejected taking the canvas bag that was offered at the exit as a

freebie.

It was the same as last time, and the time before that

Inside is a thin magazine wrapped in plastic and I always open it but never

read it.

The magazine last year had an ice cream on it.

This time it has a

tulip on it

I don’t care about the picture, because I wish inside the bag, was a cupcake

The people that thought the show was great kept saying the word 'great'

The people that didn’t had left

The people that pretended to went to the bar

The people who tried to work this out watched who gave time looking

Everyone is so funny

Everyone I like, cars

One day I dream of having a sports car that is too big to park in most places
