Acre Lane
Walking down the street
One dayI separated
I was crying
divided in two
a casual observer
watching myself cry
beside myself
What's the matter?
I casually asked
Not knowing how long
This division would last
(No Reply)
Mildly anxious
disinterested
wanting to join in
enviously detached
(Keening)
Building annoyance
Look
what is this about?
No patience
(Accept me)
I give up
this puzzle
wasting of time
a nonsense
(Breathing space).
And I think I am whole again.
