[Today's prompt is found poetry, so I went around the cobwebby corners of the internet for some crazies whose language I could appropriate--namely, Missed Connections on Craigslist. Here are some of the tidbits I found and crafted into something resembling art. Also inspired by the "Safety Not Guaranteed" ad and subsequent 2012 film.]
From the angel driving the BMW
to the adorable beer maiden,
a traveling polymath seeks adventure companions.
Mr Blue Eyes reading poetry by a tree
your coat over a rail
we had a conversation about smoking and eyeglasses.
Folksy Lesbian seeking an enthralling young muse
we talked about Green Camaros and Green Goblins
you said he was an out of work superhero,
Simply Seeking Sidekick.
Transgender Princess looking for friends
lonely and maybe a little broken
adventures are better in pairs, you said
Just remember C918
and the stoplight on 103rd street
You know I know what I'm doing.
there are two sides to every story and the truth
slides up the middle.
i'm looking for the one
out of sync
could it be you
