Eat Cheap, Sleep Cheap: Truck Stops & Diners
by Robert M. Katzman © October 20, 2021
I awake first
Dawn clicking on my brain
Gauze in my eyes
I see the brick-red sheet
Clamped across our windshields
Concealing us from
Curious Truck Drivers’ eyes
But in reality
No one does that
Peeking is not cool
Some guys have switchblades
Coffee far more important
