Hi how are you
good and you--
his twinkled
as they bore into mine
What can I do for you
Umm, can I have one tall Sumatra
and a slice of zucchini bread
to go please--
I feel mine twinkle back
Anything else
No thanks--
I swivel my shoulders
ever so slightly
and feel his follow my twisting contours
Five nineteen--
mine meet his
and ours dance
as the plastic exchanges hands
Thank you
Thank you--
ours tangle again
with some unspoken expectation
Have a nice day
You too--
his smile
and mine shimmer wistfully
