We parked over there

Folder: 
2013

We stopped at the Tim Horton’s you and I stopped at last year

On our way back fromWindsor

After knocking on my aunts’ door to find she bailed with no word

The one onManning Road

Between her house and the highway home

We stopped there today

On our way back fromWindsor

And it’s funny

How I thought of it

Recalled us stopping there before

Guess you still linger in my heart

Crying “let’s get coffee”

This bugs me too

This bugs me too...but in a good way ;-) I think the title is perfect, fits the poem and both capture those instances when a moment, even seemingly trivial, from the past crowds out whatever is actually occurring in the present. I wouldn't change a thing ;-)

I can see why you do, I but its perfect for the poem. It captures that thought/memory that slams into your brain and derails everything else. While it's not typical Rabbit, it is totally on point for me. ;-)

maybe that is exactly it! it

maybe that is exactly it! it does not do what most of my titles do, its not witty, or blunt, or in your face, or making no sense til the end of the poem and the 3 second dely of "what..wait..OHHHHHH" its just a title. perfectly adiquatte, bland, ho hum run of the mill title....thats why I don't like it :) seeeeee you get me

Hm.

Seems more of a speed bump then a good parking job,

or maybe you are like me,

and just half assed the parallel lines,

they aren't straight ya know?

We always tend to find ourselves staring back at that curve,

just up ahead,

counting down the seconds until you can get your three second chance of an imitational "bird"

(^-^)

I love the title!

We parked over there

It's what made me click on this,

and always, always, ALWAYS!! never disappointed.

Pssh.

You are who I come to when I need a good witty, kiss my ass, kind of read.

Your titles alone are enough to set me off,

and plus...I would tell you if something didn't fit with me..

I would say: "Ashley, I love you, but you need to fix this shit right here..."

(^.^)
