She wanted him
She had been chaste
There was
confusion in communication
He'll never lie
with me again
infinite love
and sorrow
her hope had
remained embalmed
he was embalmed
in time
***
She tried to visualize love
No, it wasn't possible!
But of course it was,
if worked out intellectually
if she just lay flat
not love-making
merely a formal prostration
to the exigencies of glands
and time flow
She sat up in bed;
longing for movement,
freedom
***
they had fallen into routine
so as not to bump into each other
They conversed in bulletins
did not ask questions
unless questions were necessary
They walked slightly apart
They made detours round each other's lives
What had he said?
That was lost.
'Don't worry' he said
It could be worse
We could be a day apart
3.3077 minutes
allows us a measure
of communication
Please time your statements
So that we do not talk at
Cross
Purposes.

I want to know your feelings
how you are
what you are
thinking
I am not suffering
I have completely recovered
There is no reason to foresee
that my perceptions
will ever lapse back
into phase with yours
They have remained
an unfluctuating
3.3077 minutes ahead
