Crisp speech tidal wave of vowels and consonants
Contrained in her throat.
Not sure I made myself clear,
Not sure I empathized
The singular purpose
Of my intentions,
But, no,
It's not in my best interest,
So, I decline.
She was holding the door
And it was time for him
To leave.
A sigh and a tip of the proverbial hat
And he
Was
Gone.
Well, that was easy, she thought.
Pouring a glass of wine,
Sitting down to think it through,
Yea, quite easy,
Until he drove his truck through her front door.
That's how it started.
That's how it ended.
