Phantom Finger

by B.J. Burgins

 
Seeking out old friends, most of whom are men for conversation, companionship, catch-up; unsure, maybe the lonely acting up again. She settles whenever longing to be loved into oblivion, selling never telling but waiting hoping the jackpot will be met by keeping in touch with familiar acquaintance or simply by touching basis leaving behind fingerprint, bedsheet & lip traces- results of prospects that receive and still neglect - unwilling to miss the good thing, trying out without buying out after something yearning to be appreciated as a natural woman in vain, hovering over the age clock, her ring finger twitches touched by phantom itch.
