FORTUNE.

Never, EVER read your fortune until after you eat the cookie.
That's what she told me.
And I followed that advice
with every fortune cookie since.

But today, in an act of defiance, an act of independence...
I read the fortune FIRST.

The Wait

Sometimes people in the ghetto

Especially when it is very cold

Will pull up in front of another house

Where they are most likely picking

Someone up who doesn’t have a car

And they will honk the horn

Almost always 3 times

They peer uncomfortably

and anxiously across

The passenger seat

at the front steps and the door

But no one comes out

Then they honk again

Usually 3 more times but sometimes 4

Eventually someone will flee from the house

As though it is on fire

run down the steps and jump in the car

The funny thing is that for all the time spent

Honking and blocking traffic the driver could have

gotten out of the car and gone up to the front door

Knocked, gone inside, been warm, said hello

But then it always comes down to the same thing doesn’t it

The question being, where do you want to wait
