In the Nick of Time

A poem by Julia R. DeStefano

Richard Gere as Edward Lewis in ‘Pretty Woman’ (1988)

In the Nick of Time

“To tell you the truth, I don’t feel like being alone tonight.” ~Edward Lewis, Pretty Woman

In the cyclic nature of living,
one comes to crave
a new stop
on the journey
and is ready to run
every damn red light
to get there.
