I do not have time

 

Which was not true, of course

He had all the time in the world

 

I'm way too busy

 

Which was semi- true,

although he made choices on how he spent his hours 

 

I'm going out of town

 

He had mentioned this before

yet had not gone anywhere

 

except here,  

on the same barstool

 

looking at the same clock
