Reading Poetry
The adultress whispers
Behind the pages
Begging him, stay.
He grabs his pants,
Slips out through
A stanza break
Enjambment man
Run from fate,
Juxtaposition of two
Loves, lyrically lost.
Title wife weeps
Silenced by his dash
Away. Another line
Breaks her heart.
Aloud, a woman reads
Interrupting Mind’s
Romantic monologue
With a wondering word.
