Where does
one fit that neither
wants to be
already saddled
with spouse +
offspring

But also,
who does not
thrive on the
‘out at night’
life of drinks
and food and
indulging?

Sometimes, I
peer down from
these third-floor
windows like
I’m hole up
in some lighthouse,

keeping watch
for the two
prevailing groups
that are

completely
preoccupied.
