Are You Still There?

A short talk overheard in the dark…

Unseen person from the left: “Are you still there?”

Unseen person from the right: “Yes.”

Unseen person from the left: “But I can’t see you.”

Unseen person from the right: “I’m still here.”

Unseen person from the left: “Did you go away for a little while?”

Unseen person from the right: “No. I’ve been here the whole time.”

Can’t Find the Exit

All-Seeing Eye

The all-seeing eye saw you break the speed limit on the way to your grandmother’s house. But it does not judge.

Vain Stupid Omelet

Please do not
make fun of
the words
I used in Scrabble—
vain
stupid
omelet—
as they are better
than my usual
3-letter fare.
The next morning,
at the diner,
the omelet upon
my plate said,
“I’m the most ravishing
thing in here by far,
and I care not one fig
if I don’t know the
capital of California
or the sum of two plus two,
for I am about to die
a most beautiful death
upon this plate.”

Squares Waiting for Their Turn
