PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I met her

in a train station

She was on her way 

to the U of Penn

where she was majoring

in English Lit

I was heading for

the old Civic Center

for a wrestling card.

so for her

it was Pound vs. Eliot

for me 

it was Abdullah the Butcher

vs. the Original Sheik

I guess that’s why

We hit it off:

we were both

getting ready for fights

mine physical

hers intellectual

but sometimes 

a good fight

can be quite stimulating

and with her

I felt stimulation

would be

a very good thing
