online,
joining each and every dating service
out there,
looking for the next
love of my
life.
i was often surprised
at all the married women out there
sneaking
off for dinner
and wine.
feminists who ran to the bathroom
when the check
arrived.
the crazy meter on red.
i met doctors and lawyers,
cup cake
entrepreneurs.
flight attendants,
bankers and government
workers.
cops and dancers.
housewives who hadn't seen
the light of day
since nineteen seventy-nine.
it was a veritable box
of chocolates,
the inside unknown until
you took a bite.
so many to unwrap, so
little time.
