It didn't take long to encounter her first man.
This one drove by her on this country road in his pickup
stopped up ahead
considered
formulated a plan
and circled back.
It was always the same.
Some were subtle.
This one could barely speak english.
The quid pro quo was clear.
He worked at a hotel up ahead.
He had a room for her.
She ignored him and kept walking.
She pitched her small tent in a grove of trees between two corn fields.
It began to rain.
She missed Kate.
