You were the last young woman
to look at me that way
When was it
sometime between 9/11 and the tsunami
You looked at my belt
and then I looked down at my belt
you were right
it wasn't bad
then we resumed our lives.
I don't know about yours
but mine is curiously peaceful
behind the apparent turbulence
of litigation and advancing age
