How Many Iterations



                of ourselves        does she remind you of
so                      to have walked away                 pretending
                you'd read a book      but wouldn't it have been      when the sparks
back then and you got 'lucky'              irretrievable dinner          
           fly              this limp certitude            is hungry           is irrevokable
   another chance is falling apart             these blues
I guess they'll do                for herself, not                the radio
      what I ordered          

  we try
to follow the stations of the heart and if the heart were truly broken would it
    hurt so much?
