Once plans light the fuse
nerves sizzle, anxiety
flares. Can’t stand the wait.

Separation
Buttons zippers snaps
connect. Scissors blades sunder.
Don’t know where we stand.
Lying on Facebook
Spun as adventure,
it’s a long hard drive with a
heartbroken daughter.
Long distance
She’s moving back, two
thousand-mile-wide break in their
nine months together.
Adventure
Too old for pick up
and go – live in the moment
shit, but…what the hell.
Road trip
Three thousand miles. One
week. San Francisco. New York.
Stay between the lines.
To the rescue
She called. I’m flying
out. Quit my job already.
Knew this would happen.
Airfare robbery
Four days’ notice, it’s
500 bucks to fly coast
to coast. Got no choice.
Little white lies
Enjoy the city.
Envision the future I
text, wanting her home.
Career change
This is why she can’t
move back East, the cubicle
life too dim, dull, stale.
