Falling in love on trains

Sunday, August 21, 2011

She looked up
and I looked up
and we locked eyes
– for maybe two full seconds –

and then she went back to her book
and didn’t look up again.

And I thought: Fine.
I thought: Be that way.

Green ammonia-filled acrid smoke-piss in the morning:
asparagus for dinner.
