her other boyfriend

her other boyfriend,
not you,
but the one
she keeps hidden,
is suspicious
of her absence
on Saturday nights.
she's juggled him
into Tuesday,
or Thursday,
an occasional sunday,
or Friday night,
but rarely
Saturday. which is in
your favor.
sometimes though
you wonder, when
staring at her neck
and shoulder,
how bad it hurts
when he bites.
