you smiled a little too heavily
for this particular situation
but it never weighed us down

I laughed with you and you laughed at me
because you make me a little funnier
than I usually tend to be


you ladled a little extra happiness
and a pinch of sex
into my people soup

I thanked you politely,
handed you your iced tea,
and sat down next to you.

Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand.

I know this is here for critiquing but I just wanted to tell you I really enjoyed the meeting. It reminded me of someone.

Fanks. Glad it reminded you of someone, like it does for me.

Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand.

This is a charming little piece. My only criticism would be that it is a little too little. Are you sure that the minimalism approach is the best route here.

I'm not.

This seems out of place. Perhaps another poem in the making?
