Misty's Restaurant

Lincoln, Nebraska, 8/30/03



Right next to the camping there's a half-mile

Downtown, east on the ninth street over,

Exit 101B. Another quarter-mile

West and you can see the seventh

Seal breaking the speed limit. It's a

65-40 minimum split

Between the country inn and its suits, a fair

Field of fire at the state fair. Park

Your car in Nebraska, a university

For the corn that's not in a museum or zoo:

Waverley 6, Omaha 52.

Settle in to that little salt creek; get control

Of your litter of puppies for the next two miles

At least. But the brothers of Sigma Chi Fraternity

Want no abbot at their sports complex,

Free to mount any old wahoo or truck.
