Epiphanies
               What about you

she pursed her lips he almost came across the stool to kiss her they looked like beggin fruit
but they had only just been introduced
                                        she might think him forward
She may like forward 

Yawanna shaddup

Shoud I 
        Ive seen you gamble before

Not in the first ten minutes

Feels longer  Feels like youve known her longer

It does
        Doesnt it

Its okay we agree
                    Epiphanys perfect

You know where this is going

We talk around the water cooler

Its not been ten minutes

No  But your epiphanys not much older 
                                              We got your back
I appreciate everyones support

Just another reason why we signed on


she thought with her lips pursed

Youre killing me

   Im being thoughtful.  Its not often . . not often for me rather . I don’t know about you . however it hasn’t been my experience to be tendered a . . . such a . considerable . . question.

Inside ten minutes

Ten minutes?
                It feels longer.

Thas wha Iwe thought too

she finally blinked though nothe was sure at his we
                                                         Are you asking me or are you wanting to share an epiphany?

You have themthought so

Yes.   I do.

Is it ten minutes yet

I think you’ll have broken the record if you didn’t say for . . . until the next time we met.

Id like to meet again too

Are you asking me out?

I thought you just did
                       I don stand on traditions or rules  each is meant to be broken
Id be thrilled to go out with youthank you

he thought she couldnt quit blinking
                                     they really came on hard

Ah . . ah I . . . yes.

Where woud we gowhere were you thinking

when her mouth opened she quit blinking
                                           now the trick was keeping her mouth open

I was thinking about epiphanies not . . . where . . or . dating you.

No matter Im happy you askedgives me something to really look forward to

   I don’t know how that happenedhow’d that happen?

You  Me  Us   Them

Them?

Feelings
          Theyre more than feelings   Whoa oh ooh feelings
That’s a song.

It is
Epiphanies
Care to share
              An because weve just met you woudnt know but it falls to mewill always falls to me to say first so you have a keen understanding where Im coming fromwha my feelings are I dislike people who wannaplay gotcha or ambush

   It falls to you?

Yes  No surprises 
                   Transparency  Cross your arms Im undressing you 
she threw her arms Oh my God! across chest
Too late
        My my my my my 
You’re nuts.
Crazy
      Its too soon to talk about my nuts   Unless you insist
No.

Epiphany
           It occurred just before I turned around when Ryan hailed me to introduce us I love to touch I love to massage to caress  Although Im not keen on being touched

What made you think that?

If I liked being touched likely  I woud have had a massage by now

You haven’t ever had a massage?

No Ive no interest in having one but Im all over giving them

   I like massages.

Id love to massage you
                         he cleared his throatfist to his mouth     An epiphany

Ya gotta be kiddin’. You derailed my whole train of thought. 
                                                                  Give me some time?
Yabetcha he lookedup at the clock above the bar Weve known each other all of not twenty minutes

1225,  2sday,  5  9. 23
2144,  2sday


   polite companies those that reeked politenessfor those he was grateful he wasnt invitedhe wasnt a good fit

those which he didnt hear of   were wise decisions by their hosts and hostesses
                                                                                      wiser than they knew
and when inevitably one slipped a party a gathering was heldtheir expressions so pained 
                                                                                              Nono alleviating their concern
I know you know it wasnt smart to invite me


   he had a penchant for disrupting polite company
like shell on hardboiled eggs
                              that hed rap crack roll then slowly  deliberately  deliciously pickoff in small bits he did his damnedest to avoid those pieces suspects that might clingtogetherunfurl per the connecting membranefilm between the shell and egg

they looked like they wanted to pick a fight
                                             but
they didnt want to muss themselves
                                        or mar
their fine clothes
often the men let their women fight their battles
although he was an equal-opportunity offender 
                                               women werent off the menu
although
          rare he found a worthy opponent
SHRILL mostly 
               momentarilyhefeltbad for the pair

he shouldnt say opponentit wasnt like he was looking for a fight
usually it was brought to him
an inane comment

   inane in the air tasted like shit in his mouth on his tongue 
                                                               he wasnt going to have that
host hostesses wore that effete expression Can’t you just let it go?
NO
   inanity needs to be nipped in the budimmediately long ago he accepted the what-some-might-consider unsavory assignment  of being an abrupt budnipper interrupter of coddled status quo
statuses did not appeal to him
                                 therefore
he was a natural
naturally contrary
an eristic
          his attemptassist to provide a heuristic experience for whoevers toes he stepped on whomever he interrupted

no inanity on his watch
