VOO

the widow says: I broke her first
of course I say just the reverse
and we can't get the past this

something she did

on the 14th of June

because of something I said

on the 13th of June

and we can't get past this

and if we could lock our lips

and block our noses

and swim beneath the barriers

and come up clean

on the other side

but we can't get past this
