#31- Curious First Date.

Strange match.

Ghosts, today, Miss.

Creeping up

From somewhere strange.
Some shapeless hell.

Illness of some

Unknown severity.

Hint of a fever.

Warmth, unwanted.

Alone and isolated.

Memories, replayed.

Nothing better to do.

But some as intrusive 

As the heat.

R and I talking 

About our various 

Inequities.

Rock bottom, 

For both.

Recalling hospital visits.

And the place

We both went.

On separate occasions.

Doesn't sound so bad

To go back now.

"How about I meet you there?"
She says.

A curious first date.

I laugh,

Thinking about

How fucked up

We both are.

Not feeling so good today.
