we escape
to our places
i in my book
in the kitchen
her to the bed
i to the the broken
sleep of the couch
her to the old pictures
that should be backed up soon
i to the bed
her to the laundry
assisted in chaos
by the toddling
engaged girl
i to the machines
locked and rusted
her to the toddling
engaged girl
and the phone
bleeping proof
still, they listen
and talk
i to my book
of short stories
and her to the bed
curled fetal
not waiting
but there still.
