Expectant Valentine

One feels with life
that the major arrangements
have all been carefully made
and one has merely
to show up at what
is clearly her party
and you are either
too early or too late
and have missed it
getting but one strike at it
I put the book down
and re-examine the mosquito
bite on my thigh
at any moment
the party will start
