where and what time?

i get an early morning text

from a number

not in my phone.

hello, it says. good morning.

how are you?

i miss you, and i think i still

love you?

we should get together

sometime

and see once more, where

it could go.

who is this, i type.

do i know you?

it's Shelly, aren't you Mark?

no, i tell her,

you may have the wrong 

number.

i'm so sorry. she writes.

but you sound nice. do you

want to meet anyway,

see if there's a spark?

sure. why not? i tell her.

what time?  casual wear?

the old town park?
