that i'm thinking about quitting next year.
he looks me
and says, why.
why would you leave me
in the lurch like this.
i straighten my
tie, and look myself in the eyes.
i'm sorry i tell myself.
but it might be time.
after all these years.
after everything i've given you,
the best years of my life,
and now this?
maybe two years, i give in.
okay, he says.
chin up, and get back to work.
