back & forth
the barman walks
he’s not a clock
a pendulum
but the way he makes
people arrive
just before
    
he backs & forths
    
    
is canny
does he think
    
“ooh i want to carry a lasagne
    
    
better make sure
    
a lasagne eater arrives”
and there you are
    
before you know it
(after he does
    
of course)
