The two poets rose
and in silent agreement descended to the
bistro below
The sat on the sidewalk staring at the passing bys.

she wrote

her hand in his
their shared laugh
he offers his coat
but she is basking in the
warmth of his adoration
Do you walk a step behind
as he?
gazing at the back of her
as if he were so in love
he needed to know every
hair on her head

he wrote

caught you!
you hold her hand and feign interest
but your head jerks
to the sound of cheers in
the pub as you pass
Trained seal.
follow in her wake,
dutiful and obedient little boy
you are too weak
to live a life solitary,
with all it's freedom.
