dating in 2016 in the napa valley

it was a thursday night
we made pesto and she opened a bottle of wine
a bottle of 2007 reserve cabernet from napa valley
and i said
thats a really nice bottle of wine
im happy that you opened it
you must have an incredible collection.
and she said

maybe i just like you
and i open the good stuff because i like you

_


we fucked that night and it was incredible
we fucked and we fucked and we fucked

and in the morning the wine was there
half-drunk glasses on the countertop
stale in the air

what an incredible waste i said
isn't that kind of a waste?
and she said
that's what good wine is for
to make ordinary moments into something else
