Last post before leaving the cafe.

>>Yostie

Donal is clairvoyant.

Locker room jocks called me Yostie,
but not those who liked me or knew me:
just those who looked past me
but never saw through me.
My childhood nickname was "professor,"
an odious sobriquet for a kid ... yet
Donal has consent to call me "squid."
He can can name me as he wants
of course; it doesn't taunt me.
I've been called worse.

Best to all,
Prolix Ommastrephes
