Two Minutes, Different Places
Two minutes
Forever separated
By two minutes
Dueling digits.
Her alarm clocking
Two minuet meters
Faster than
My cell phones
Numerical contra-assertion
One bed,
Two lives.
In the same place
But at different times.
Forever
Is two minutes.
A Grand Canyon.
A Continental Divide.
We both get up at Seven.
But she get to use bathroom first,
Two minute headstarted,
Forever unfair
This will bug me permanently,
Perhaps forever,
Or for
At least the
two minutes
It took to scribble this
True, I get to "sleep" an extra two minutes....
