Give me

Tour guides

Flight attendants

Life coaching

As therapy

Drinking

In a beer garden

Under giant umbrellas

In the rain

Buying a round

Group hugs,

Appointment television

Where did it go?

Eating comfort food

In the dark

Strangers meeting

On a train

Oversharing,

Developing a personal

History

Disappearing

Stealing a march

Trend setting

As a byproduct

Of parsimony

The cultivation of

Good husbandry

A need

To be seen as different

Or not at all.

Following a leader

Is strangely paradoxical

When as a collective

We struggle to arrive

At a conclusion

In good order,

And are all

As lost

As one another.
