Date: 4 August 1999

10pm

a plastic shroud obscured my longing looks
at her latex forged character
and i strummed on my guitar
it's voice, to me, was soothing
as her body arched into recline
and her eyes, with mine, made holy music
she asked me if i was an artist, with a playful smirk
i told her i'd be painting ceilings in far off lands if i was
i just play guitar
she said she really liked the way i sounded
i said i really liked the way she looked
she asked if we could meet for coffee later
i told her i don't drink
she told me coffee was not alcoholic
i told her i don't drink anything
allergic to liquids
she gave me a strange look and said that i was weird
i giggled and told her she must be weird too...after all, she liked me
i began another tune
we set a date for 10pm
10pm hasn't quite rolled around yet
