times
she threatened
to leave. she'd set
her luggage
by the door, her coats
and shoes,
as a tease,
she gathered up the things
on her desk
and pretended that tonight
was the night
she was going
back to one of her ex-husbands,
or married
boyfriends.
i'd laugh of
course.
although praying to hear
the bell ring
as she went out the door.
