Nonversation

(A nonversation as per Vogue, is party lingo for a conversation that is desultory and going nowhere.)

The traffic, it’s crazy today
Been to this club before?
Which side of town do you stay?
Love your dress, which store?

Oh wow, your son takes guitar classes
And taking the highway got me here faster
You don’t have network, God, that sucks
Your maid has quit, a disaster!

You love Thai food, that’s awesome
Gold’s Gym, Bandra, are you?
Everyone’s wearing purple these days
Getting a drink…make it two.

Nice knowing you
Nice making nonversation
I wish I could stay for more
But to be honest, I’m nearing expiration.
