he would start whistling
Very random
and very loud
even at night in bed
and stopping him was
very much a
gamble
The caterpillar-like
stitches on
his wife’s arm were a testimony
to that
He’s never been the same
since his head injury
Poor fellow just had the terrible,
terrible luck to
walk underneath an overpass while
some teenagers were throwing
big rocks for fun
Now he kept calling the emergency
number and crying that
his wife had
gone missing when she’d be just
in the other room or at work
The neighbors filed
noise complaints
because of
his nightly whistling
and apparently he no longer knew
how to use the
toilet paper. He always smelled
and it was worse when
he climbed in bed
besides his wife
It was hell
and hell broke people
and tonight again he started whistling
and woke her up
and as a response
she started whistling as well
They whistled together
in the dark
under the covers
and held hands and smiled
after so long
