tuesday wednesday friday
met on a tuesday
shared a cigarette and mutual baggage
followed the pull
got a dog, 2 cats, and a mortgage
loved me like a shadow
lost me like a key
wander these rooms
where the children wonder why
followed the voice
alone with the echo and vintage wine
so this is wednesday
i thought i knew what was what
the voices change
hear the echo but here’s how it cuts
we are here
within these rooms
still we wander
it’s coming soon
left on a friday
changed the bedding, put down the ring
held my own hand
wrapped the body, the children sing
back
