Verse:
It was a cryptic conversation.
Suddenly, I m rolling in the dirt.
I try and stumble down the passageway, my head thundering with hurt.
--
And my condolence to your boyfriend, taken by this penny-ante scam.
Pretty soon he will be leaving for where I am.

Verse:
It was an endless filibuster.
Everything was said and nothing done.
I left there confident in victory, counting out the arguments I d won.
I contemplate the unexpected,
--
staring at my hands upon the oar.
I guess it was my inclination to hope for more.
