she wasat a distance dressed in black maybe black athletic tights a
black shortsleeved top coloured accentschevrons
her clothing was formfitting
she stood on the stone plaza before
a white hunkered monolith a public building
a public building that had been constructed and tried hard to look
differentstand apart from other public structures
however in this particular moment as he walked closerto form a better
impression admiring her as he walked she her curves definitively were more monumentalmore distinct than the monolith
maybe it wasnt fair to compare
the two but he just happened by
and found himself witness to their black and white contrast and in contrasting it was visually impossible
not to compare them
half the hair on her head was
cut short the remaining half nape length and twined with coloured ribbon or yarn
her eyes were madeup reminiscent of ancient Egyptian queens or pharaohs black kohl
they were very pleasing the makeup seemed more fitting to her personalityher
defiance her stance and posture than what grepond would offer softermore subtle her appearance was provocative
she was brown
she was taller than she appeared at
a distance
upclose she was familiar
he smilednodded to her lost in some thought that later he wouldnt be
able to say and misplaced how apparent
he was as he walked to her on a dead line
later he said it seemed he was drawn
magnetically to herhe couldntwasnt able to resist seeing her upclose
she smiled she said Hello.
Hello
You don’t remember me?
I
would remember you
You don’t.
Would you remind me
I’ll embarrass you if I do.
I can take embarrassment
Can you?
Try me
I’m
tempted. You were the impromptu bartender,
the mad scientist throwing drinks together, sampling them, handing them off or
dumping them out and trying again. You said to me, Kiddo, you’re something to
behold, but I can’t wait to see you walk away.
he blushed
I like that you blushed. It’s
honest. It’s as honest as you were with me when you made up my drink.
Did you like the drink
You liked the drink, otherwise
you wouldn’t have handed it to me after you tasted it.
Ohstop I rememberI remember you When you took the glass from me you turned it so you sipped from it where I sippedwhaja whadid you say
I said, I told you, every sip
after isn’t going to be as good as this.
Yes Yes you didthat was quite a line And then you went off as you would to the
guy who brought you
I did. I’m not seeing him anymore.
No
No.
I’m glad we’ve met again.
Again by accident
The first time was by accident.
We can’t call this accidental, can we?
No We cannot call this accidental
