The Most Interesting Man In The World, #NaPoWriMo

April 5, 2017 — cowboy, grocery store, interesting, molasses, poem, poetry

I stopped at the grocery store on my way home to pick up some essentials.

I noticed a man walking into the store in front of me because of his gait and his attire.

He was a real cowboy with a big hat, and an oversized rag in his back pocket.

Our paths crossed in the store and I asked him if he was a real cowboy or just a look.

He was a poet-electrician shopping for molasses, rescued by his wife, a smart shopper

After check out I asked if I could read his poetry. He said his website was down right now

He gave me a beautiful haiku about cactus pads with lovers names carved in them, then left

I still don’t know his name, and had to wonder if that was all an apparition for my inspiration

Either way, I am sure that was the most romantic episode to ever take place at that Fry’s
