Love Poem: The Waitress

The Waitress

“All men are pricks” she says
“Are you sure about that?” I say
I look deep into her eyes 
and she half smiles.
She holds the stare and so do I.
“Whatever a woman says, she means 
the opposite” she says with a giggle 
and stubs her cigarette.
She leaves to do a chore
inside the café.
I sip my latte and wait 
for her to come back.

I love our little chats!
