How R U? She Asked


How R U? She Asked - drawing by Harvey Dog 2021

How R U?
she asked

I replied:
“That’s a
complex
question.
I don’t
know
how to
answer that.”

I stare
at head-lights
approaching
the darkness
of thoughts,
lost, so lost…

“That’s OK,”
she said,
“I was just
leaving.”


Notes

  • A typical conversation…especially in the old days! ?
  • Grammarly’s Tone Detector rates this as Sad (****). I thought it was a touch comedic…but, I guess…it IS sad. ?
