Hello young man

He is 42, and I'm 52.

It's my line on Grindr, the dating app where I get more than hookups - my writing prompts.

I invited him over, and he comes in all white, from head to foot - bonnet, jacket, shorts, shoes, and pearls.

He quips, Pharrell Williams wears pearls.

He noticed David on my desk, and before he can ask,

I got it in Florence.

He tells me he has one too, and I ask where he got it.

Taipei.

He redeemed himself with "the" sex. 

Let us not be fooled by appearances.

He deconstructed my love construct.
