let's have some fun

so what do you like to do
for fun,
she asks me
on the call.
i sigh. i yawn.
it's not what you're
doing, it's who
you're doing it with
i respond.
i shake my head.
oh, it's a long list,
i tell her.
i like to jump out of planes
when the weather
is good.
wrestling sharks is fun,
or alligators.
i like to hike up 
Mt. Everest
without a shirka.
deep sea diving is one
of my favorite things.
sometimes i go up
into hot air balloons
around the power lines,
always exciting,
before the boom.
and you?
same, she says, same
as you.
