lost
and needing direction
notice the place just ahead
dirt parking lot
a sign above
cheers
sounds nice enough
walking in
all regulars turning
gazing
deciding i wasn't from their planet
walking taller past each one
to my open seat
waiting at the very end
corner spot
not long before settled in
can't help
the dear
sitting next to me
hear
her talking
sweet and tough
rough n vulnerable
by my calculation
can't afford those baggage fees
throaty
laughing about ex's
oh's
and her beloved
jack
no denying the attraction
fatal brutal
she got up
hoping it wasn't to leave
my eyes followed
her bob and weave
all other eyes followed mine
her jeans worn
right
faded creased
traces
used in a few places
a thick black belt
hitchin a ride
i was straining to see
of any notches evident
experiences felt
relief
conversation starter
veering to the weather
rainy days
learned
don't bother her
just the grey
as she taps her mind
wonder
stop and stutter
have we met
different actress
know i have rented this movie before
finally,
ask
deliberation anticipation
she's going to show this scout
the route
her house
on the way
expectation
a merit badge
soon to be earned
not much of a talker
no shortcuts
circuitous
no bluff
she was dragging
on a marlboro red
soon enough
no need saying much
more
she fell asleep like a child
wild to mild
knew i wasn't staying
my only regret
left
my favorite hat , behind
again
