If I want you
Will you love me
Will I love you
Or is love
More subtle
More comfortable
Less of a need
Than a soft
Daily pleasure
Dating, San Francisco

About Me
- Single in San Francisco
- San Francisco, CA, United States
- Being single in San Francisco for over 8 years makes me an authority on the subject. I'm Margot Rudell, and this poetry blog records my experiences, observations, and introspections. Enjoy!

As much as we wish and dream that they did, some days don't hold a "soft daily pleasure," especially for people who are *committed* to each other.
After her husband survived a head-on collision, my sister-in-law waited, watched, and helped him through months and years of coma/rehab/re-insertion into home life, society, and work life. That was sheer hell for the longest time, with artifacts more than a decade later.
A lesser woman wouldn't have survived that kind of love.
I could get by with either...as long as I could count on an occasionally raucous cacophony of exhilaration.
