taking a five minute break

we were making
love
one morning, a Sunday morning,
before
coffee
and bagels,
and the morning paper,
and walking
the dog.
in the midst of it all,
when
she tapped me on the shoulder
and said,
can we take a short
break.
did you hear that ding?
i think my mother
just called.
