Flipping through the paper
one page catches my eye.
On the top a 1-900 number;
one-fifty per minute.
Below are adds for people:
Male Seeking Female
Female Seeking Male
Male Seeking Male
Female Seeking Female
Activity Partners
Desperate pleas for Love.
Two-tone beacons
for constant companions.
Slender, attractive, educated
folks looking for All
in black and white.
fire-fighters, architects,
professors, Ivy-leaguers
Successful in Life,
not in Love.
In this Melting Pot
of pain and longing,
this, the ultimate search,
takes strange paths.
So far,
so far;
my own beacon
has been just as
successful as I.
