finding fun couple things to do

she suggests

that we

do something different this weekend.

perhaps

take a flight in a hot air

balloon over

Orange County,

or jump out of a plane from

ten thousand

feet.

we should have some fun

with our life,

wrestle sharks,

box kangaroos.

put our heads into the mouths

of alligators

and crocodiles.

maybe

go pick berries in Winchester,

or ride

a horse in Middleburg.

there's the polar bear plunge

coming up

soon, at Sandy Point in Maryland,

come on, we should

go,

put on our suits and join in.

i lower my book,

stretched out

in the warm bed, with a strong

cup of coffee in hand

and ask,

and just who exactly are you?
