“That ******* town your obsessed with”
you said
like you were accusing me
of lying in bed with another
life (worse than another man)
another future
one that I was shaping to fit me

and you
left
left in my shadow
I’m Sorry.

one must be Daedalus
and one
must fly straight toward the sun
leaving only shadows.
