he wasntNo he wasnt 

                       he wasnt going to call Neil Gorusch judge  because he wasnt

at his confirmation hearing he said 

                                      “If justices were just secret legislators, declaring not what the law is but what they would like it to be, the very idea of government by the people and for the people would be at risk.”

he excused himself waved off attempts to keep him in the house went out to stretch his legs escape the thick doldrums bent to concentrate and share with him

a niggling 

          You have to be thaway  Whaway  Facetious   I have to be something

something somewhere else 

he couldnt say how it attracted his attention but the billboard did

hed heard of them 

                    hadnt been confronted before

it had a pliable face

                     like a childs  unlined unperturbed

one could mistake its countenance as innocent 

reading him it conformed to his irritation 

                                           it said You think they don’t know what they’re talking about. 

it projected people milling about a political rally candidates name on homemade signs hefted in compliant hands printed on banners tshirts caps behind the lectern flags like tailored suits were sharply arranged  See? As homemade as Mom and apple pie.

he wasnt playingdropped his eyes

Oh come now don’t be like that, there’s plenty more where that came from.

she wept

I don’t want to be alone.

                           his heart trembled in his chestnearly broke 

he understood if she didnt she wasnt referring to the awful rentdisagreement she had with her boyfriend the night before 

waters ran deeper

he tread them with her  

they werent still 

roiled their hearts 

sucked them under 

nearly drowned them

   emerging from the vicious baptism they were exhausted 

                                                                     all these years later  still tired 

tired of hearing well-intended though ignorant words 

Don’t look back. You have to keep moving forward. 

                                                         Into What 

their guts were cut out 

organs do not regenerate 

   H O L L O W 

                 thats how he felt 

he might assume thats how she felt 

he was older

shed outlive him 

I don’t want to be alone.
