After my meal
i peeled off the plastic wrapper with
red and yellow Chinese lettering
broke the cookie in half
made with flour
sugar
vanilla
and sesame seed oil
i read it quietly to myself at the table
"A distant relationship is beginning
to look more promising."
my lungs exhaled
i sank in my chair a bit
and just thought to myself
Goddammit
just in case you were wondering my lucky numbers are
"14, 16, 19, 37, 47, 49"

An unFORTUNEate feeling 😉
Very good, my hands have phantom sensations of cracking open cheap little cookies, and the dusty texture of a little paper slip.
