Co-Op Love Story
By William Eldon Bevill

I gazed at the girl in the health food store

energy surging through me

kind of like one of the crystals hanging near the organic pomegranates

she radiated with eco-friendly glistening scents similar to that of a frisky otter

diluted pupils in her eyes expanding

long unwashed hair tied with a Grateful Dead ribbon.

I fell for her with the intensity of a soy bean pancake, and she didn't even see my eyes

I imagined a chance encounter there and then at the health food store

just me and her and the produce fruit section and perhaps some animal cruelty free lotion.

There would be a kind of energetic force that happens when two cosmic beings unite and copulate.

I put a zucchini against her underwear and said, "Wow, what nice weather outside."

I could almost taste the beeswax lip-gloss dripping from her mouth

her feet wiggled in her brown, faded suede sandals

those unwashed toes inching toward my legs in dramatic pursuit.

She pushed me into the aromatherapy display in blind lust and bit my ear.

"Ow!" I said.

True romance comes in a cloth shopping bag.
