A poem a day for 2013 - day 236 - Moments

I saw El Rivera in Leimert Park this afternoon
We talked for a minute about life
Life
We acknowledged how good it felt to see each other
How good it was that we have known one another since like 1994
How good it was to acknowledge the moment together
How moments pass before we even know it and all
We talked about relationships
And what she go and bring that up for huh
Then she said something I promised myself and her that I would remember
I'm glad I did

"Your mate should know you
Know you
Spend time getting to know you
Long before he thinks he can tell you what the fuck to do" El Rivera
