Date At Chipotle

Under harsh bright lights the Aluminum table tops gleam

In lieu of good conversation
He has allowed designer stubble
Bought a new green cap at
Abercrombie

In lieu of good conversation
She wears a low cut dress
Presses breasts to the table
Carries a faux smile

Fascinated by
The grilled chicken pieces on their plates
They study them closely,
Deeply.
