I got to hear her voice
this mild morrow,
and we were both
a little down,
so it made
happiness happen.
chatting while she
got dressed for work
and I ate conspicuous eggs
with pepperoni in them,
which she called out
as weird, and we
laughed before the phone
broke up in her mountains.
sure, sex is good,
but don't discount
curious kismet
in the most clever
of places in shining time,
when we are all born again
to block the bullshit
just for brief beguilement.
