Sin-serely

 

He chided me

ridiculed my love of zinfandel

for his love of grigio

never uttered another phrase

though I was in a haze

craving heartfelt, sincere

phrasings, tastings of mellow linguistics

his words so descriptive

his ambiance mythic

and finally in silence, his silence

I became a statistic, plagued

by my own persistence.
