Medicine Hat Sunday Morning (Darin Barney)

Medicine Hat Sunday morning
The bedrooms all smell of regret
And vows they wish they had remembered
On nights they wish they could for get
She roots around for her stockings
Covers him up with a sheet
Takes the cab fare from his wallet
And he pretends he’s still asleep

He dreams of the banks of the south arm
Fishing for nothing at all
She settles up with the motel
Checks if she‘s had any calls
He drops a fly in the eddy
She thinks of something to say
Both of them leave empty-handed
‘Cause nobody’s biting today

Is it just me, or was it cold this year?
It’s been a while since we had a chinook
I’m sure it’ll warm up by the time you get here
And the spring will come early
And it will be golden
Golden again

Caribou Diner on Main Street
Victor props open the door
Sweeps up the glass on the pavement
Mops up the blood on the floor
Fires up the grill and the coffee
Throws back a thimble of gin
Ties back the strings on his apron
And waits for the world to roll in

The terminal opens at seven
She didn’t make it ‘til nine
It took her two hours of praying
Before she could make up her mind
“Will that be return or one-way?
And will it be cash or a card?”
She empties her purse on the counter
Lays down what’s left of her heart
