Dating : David Bowie Eyes

Hi, Medium!

I thought some of you who enjoyed my Emily Dickinson article might also enjoy a poem I recently wrote. It’s about the time I traveled across the country to meet someone I’d never met before, a person I only knew from a dating app.

Jack asking me to fly

to Portland, so we could meet

and make out. Jack writing,

“Get here yesterday,” when I ask him

which weekend works best.

You can read the entire poem here:

I hope you all are doing well and staying healthy!

Happy holidays!

xo, Erin
