LOVERS
LOVERS IN A DANGEROUS TIME
They are so wrapped up in each other blue smoke
rises from their heads Once separate now fused
a participation mystique
In the news a couple married 88 yrs. The old
groom reports: I always keep a hand on her knee
Another warrior of a 75 yr. union said: I make sure
to keep a piece of my Chapati for him
Yesterday my 3rd husband baited me: Who was your
2nd funniest husband? Unbaitable I did not answer
Likely I have not married him yet
