Had he shown
at the church
on the day
Yiska knows
she'd be back
from her fresh
honeymoon
to a life
as his wife
but the ***
never showed
& left her
all alone
in the church
with the guests
& parents
& broke her
she sits now
in the ward
all locked up
with others
suicides
depressives
drug addicts
alcohol
type addicts
& others
who like her
left broken
in their minds
Benny's there
beside her
wrist bandaged
where he'd slit
with a blade
she watches
as he stares
at the floor
she's done that
slit a wrist
tried hanging
from the cord
from the pink
dressing gown
from the door
but some nurse
rescued her
****** *****
it's snowing
Benny says
his eyes raised
looking out
the window
so it is
she mutters
watching flakes
of whiteness
falling down
seemingly
& darkly
a circus
& she just
a sad clown.
