Ah, Summer has taken to the highway, we hope it flies back for a brief visit before Winter comes. We will have some food specials on Saturday and Sunday, and please join us on Monday to celebrate that fact that we have a weekend. Also on Sunday: Eric Weinholtz returns for some music in the Grove, 2-5pm!
“Work Boots: Still Life”
Next to the screen door
work boots dry in the sun.
Salt lines map the leather
and laces droop
like the arms of a new-hire
waiting to punch out.
The shoe hangs open like the sigh
of someone too tired to speak
a mouth that can almost breathe.
A tear in the leather reveals
a shiny steel toe
a glimpse of the promise of safety
the promise of steel and the years to come.
–Jim Daniels
