mister wagner in his buttoned sweater at dusk watering the lawn
i remember he had a little mustache and a receding hairline but he probably didn't
he was old and strange and could have been any age between twenty-five and eighty-five
i watched him unsuspected from my own shadows
and his wife came out on the porch herself a shadow in the twilight
and said hurry up it's almost time for star trek

that last line really warms my heart.
nice work, especially on the any age and the fragility of memory
