Isolated Incident

This piece is about a transcendental moment of connection. That moment where all the nightclub posturing and idle chitchat fall away as you look across the room and lock eyes with a beautiful stranger. In an instant, your entire world stops and you stand frozen in the imagination all of the fantastic possibilities that this unknown person might hold. In the space of a single breath, you envision what your life might be with her – how it would feel to gaze into those dark eyes for the rest of your days.

And then, as quickly as it began, it is over. She blinks, or looks away, and the moment is destroyed. You drop your gaze and pick up your drink to distract yourself from the enormity of what has just passed between you. Finally, you gather enough courage to look up once more, to memorize her face or maybe to walk across the room to introduce yourself… and she is gone.
