the long way home

you know the way home.
the straight
way. but you prefer
the scenic route.
you want to delay
your arrival. it's
more about who you
are with though.
you want the conversation
to continue, her presence
to be longer. sometimes
you'll drive in a
circle, listening
to her talk. nodding
your head like a bobble
doll, agreeing
with everything she
says, even when she
talks about cats
and how wonderful
they are.
