you seem distant and aloof
lately, I tell my true love
as she applies a line
of mascara over and under
her green eyes. powdering
her nose
oh, she says. turning on
the sink water to muffle
whatever else I might
I have to say
about the state of our
relationship.
as I approach the bathroom,
with one bare foot, she
eases the door closed,
letting her dog in first,
i'm in here, she says.
a little privacy, please.
i'll be out in twenty
minutes. go read, or
something.
