On one Saturday night, an overheard Girl Dinner for two, as revealed in three parts:

Haiku I: Vibe

“He’s okay, I guess.
I don’t think he and I vibe.
Can’t find My Person.”

Haiku II: Cancel
I might call, cancel?
“‘I’m not excited at all…
to meet you.’ Too harsh?”

Haiku III: Old
“Maybe I’ll meet him?
My Person. Later in life.
Like when I am thirty.”
