Tugboat Driver
by Franco Bertucci
I drive a tugboat.
I make a ton of money.
Six weeks on, six weeks off.
I make so much money.
But I feel my want when I see you up there.
Getting the crowd going like that.
Playing for tips and beer.
I make so much money, but to do what you do- man.
It's too late for me. You're young, keep it up.
Here, have one on me.
I know they give you free beer.
Have one on me anyway.
I make a ton of money.
Poems and other embarassing things. 2011 Franco Bertucci
