Singleness, new, I saw you

Walking toward our meeting

tied to talk over airwaves.

It gave me a moment to assess our stance,

Contemplating romance I looked upon a beautifully busy mind,

finishing one thing and starting another

as tasks overlap and get checked off a never ending to do list

You say that you hold the delicate secrets of friendship.

Checking your connection to your people as they

think ~and dial calling you through the sky.

Your mind distracts fluttering like a butterfly from the vibrations of yet another call

as I wish to have mariposa wings of stained glass glimmer to pull you away for a moment.

To bathe you in pheromones and draw you out.

I want to be more important than the notion of need in each buzz of your phone

and I compete.

Trying to catch your eye,

wanting to learn who you are….
