Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:
Blind dates are often the subject of jokes, “she did WHAT with your dinner?”, horror stories, “he showed up wearing THAT??”, and random crazy behavior (just look at Messages from Match to see the sheer insanity that has gripped our world). Our lovelorn Portlandian poet, though, appears to have had a world-class, first-rate, blind date. Kind of like finding a rare and beautiful flower, don’t you think?
We Used to Blind Date
Missed Connections in Portland, OR
The blind dates are over.
I remember when you would find me
Book with a feather,
I remember when I would find you
Grasping a crisp leaf
That was a year ago
Though
Since then there have been
Days where Red and Black
would produce noodles
filled with Dragons
A field.
An empty school lot
Coconut Ice Cream tackles.
Tiger Pancakes
Boxes of Doughnuts
Superhero et Superhero biking
to Champion.
There are unfinished
never started
Banners
Maybe a blind date is in order?
I have a furry cap.
