kiss and kismet

We met at the
intersection of two parallel streets
She asked me,
was it fate that made the two of us meet?
Well fate - I said -
is way too much geometry for me
I like to leave
coincidence and chance to destiny.
But with hindsight
and in retrospect, I guess she had a point.
It's a billion evens
to one odd, an act of god
thrown out of joint for one
predestined girl to find
one random guy
in all this mess.
And so for her,

it must be fate. For me?
Just luck, I guess.
