Perhaps it won’t entirely disparage
the peculiar alchemy of marriageto risk one suggestion only:
it isn’t so bad feeling lonely.
Worse to twist yourselves into a taffy of
white-knuckled and eternal love
because you’re scared you’ll die alone
if you do not – thus to postpone
the existentially inevitable fact
that no sweet sentimental care or tact
will keep Death from its fatal fly-by –
or keep you from a solo bye-bye.
It might not be so terrible a sin
to find you like it in your skin -
and even like it better single.
Empty bathroom! Makes me tingle.
