Aug 2015
The office was intimidating
On the upper floor of the skyscraper.
The attractive woman conducting
my interview was dressed for success.

She entered into her pitch
We pride ourselves here as a
Prospective marriage broker
Not a common dating service
Our fees reflect this.
Only the most upwardly mobile
People geared for success are accepted.
Our computer programs will match you
With your perfect partner.
Compatible in every way.
Perfect she reiterated.

Would you like to become a member
She asked.

Reflecting for a moment
I declined.
Surprised she asked
If I could tell her why.
I responded.
Well! I would be afraid
That in searching so hard
For my perfect match
You may miss the imperfect
one that would
make me so very happy.
