This is part III in a series...

He smiles at the woman.
�Sometimes I just think funny.�

She smiles back.
�I know what you mean.�

There�s something about her smile
That makes his loins
Tingle for a moment.

�Are you headed to Halsted?� he asks.
�Yes.�
�Want some company?�
�Sure.�

There�s that smile again.
He wishes he could stop his nose from running�

Her name is Julia, he learns
She�s an account rep
In corporate America.

She�s likes her job,
Even though she sits in a cubicle.

�So Julia,� he asks.
�Do you walk home every day?�

�Yes. It�s good exercise.�

�I see. And what do you do for fun?�

His mind couldn�t have been further
From her words�
He was thinking�
It�s been awhile since I�ve had sex;
And she�s cute�

He looked at Julia again�
As they stopped at Halsted Street
And exchanged numbers�
