“What have you eaten today”
She asked
“Some xanax and codone”
She stared at the placemats
I felt like a happenstance
Happy mirage
A mirror of what you think is exciting
Opposed to what you now have to accept as “reality”
She keeps her wealth a secret
I flaunt my poverty
Obviously each other’s flaws are seen
“What do you want out of life”
She sips another glass of wine
“Time”
The only worthy thing that came to mind
“But what do you mean?”
Finally intrigued
“The ability to not have to explain or do anything”
I leave…we hug…I write till my eyes bleed and I fall asleep on another couch somewhere in the south because my intentions speak volumes to the things I seek
