the restraining order

it's a narrow
window, but you crawl through.
easing your way
into the house.
there was a time
when you had a key,
or could knock or ring
the bell
to get in, but she's
changed the lock
and refuses to answer
the door.
this is the only way
you have now to regain
her love and affection,
it's only the guard
dog and the alarm
on her bedroom
door that you need
to get past to see
her again. you're
almost home, you
hope she doesn't scream.
