clean dishes, raisin fingers,
long list of chores on table.
hidden eye and thin rod:
motivation.
towel in left, glass in right,
shards everywhere.
breath on neck, hair in fist,
heat of anger on his cheeks.
hand against face,
face against wall,
body on floor.
miles of road, many houses.
smiles.
phone call on Valentine’s evening;
dessert at Applebee’s.
chocolate: a solution to every problem.
tears, apologies, forgiveness.
new beginnings.
too late?
never.
Please tell me what you think
