A male
Friend
Upon hearing
The tale
Of a date
Who cancelled
Late
And never
Came
Said
Cheerfully
To me,
"Maybe
He's laying
In a ditch
Somewhere."
Some guys
Are alright.

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!

LOL!
I had a friend once who listened to my tale of technical woe with mild curiosity. Some time later he came back to me and said something like, "Hey, run that by me again. I don't think my first response was quite right." As I began my tale again, he interrupted me with frequent enthusiastic endorsements of my position and loud curses on my detractors. It meant a lot to me that he would show his empathy for my benefit on an issue that meant nothing to him but was significant to me.
Yep, "Some guys are alright."
