A poem by Hank Kalet

SONNET OF THE EVERYDAY
By Hank Kalet

Navigating the ’78 Caddy he bought
with the money he won on a good trip to
Monmouth Park
turning left onto the highway as
his passenger sips from a
cardboard coffee cup –
He nailed the trifecta then a
longshot in the last race
walked out with two grand in his pocket
had a steak dinner and bought the car
You should come to the track with me
he says grinning, unlit cigarette dangling
my luck’s been too damn good to
keep to myself
