Majestic getaway July 12, 2012

 

I’m not jealous

Much,

Just because they took

Their vacations at the same time

And she ended up

In a magnificence old hotel

Where he might once have stayed,

random thoughts bouncing

around in my empty head,

like ricocheting bullets

against which I have no

bullet-proof vest,

Does he love her enough

To have a weekend affair,

Somehow under his wife’s nose

When he was to scared to have

Her see the two of us talking

From her office window,

Could he risk a night away.

Let alone the whole of

The Fourth of July?

Or is all this something

I’m making p,

Painting pictures of illicit lovemaking

To the backdrop of crashing waves?

Desperate to put my face in his place

As the green eyed monster consumes me

Even if none of it is true
