perfume samples at the airport
lukewarm bite-size samples at Costco
the first chapter of an ebook.
a whiff, a taste, a peek.
do you want more?
will you commit to buying the full product?
or will you keep searching?
chasing? craving?
it seems to be inexplicably conditional -
for some, you’ll stop dead in your tracks,
knowing to stock up.
for many, you’ll move on,
forgetting you ever halted to try it.
but maybe you’ll remember how it felt,
deep-down it resonated with you,
and it’ll affect your other future decisions.
what makes us fall in love?
what makes us tether,
souls tied,
minds aligned,
keep choosing to fall with each other?
