the praying mantis pose

what do you do for fun, she asks.

skipping rope
and 

and then doing yoga
on her red
mat.

stuff. i tell her.
like what?

you know. beach. woods.
museums. biking.

what was the last museum
you went to
she asks,

as she stretches herself out
into a praying mantis
pose.

ummm. the museum
of sunken ships, i think.

boring, she says.

i'm taking a ballroom dancing
class.
do you want to take
it with me.

you know. i think i left
something in the car.

i'll be right back.
