wiry, old man, diminutive
with thick spectacles
shouts the specials at ATL
Atlanta airport food court, Section B
I am surprised to find him here
old friend, stately man, aged only a bit
in front of "Fresh Eats", salads and wraps
"Today is a great a day...a GREAT DAY!!"
7 years ago
he was in front of Paschal's chicken
daring us to try the mac and cheese
collard greens
on my way to Sarasota
this time, to visit my parents' grave
I am cheered to find him still at it
all Georgia hospitality, gentle resilience
