Am I as gone as October
at this table, two
from the one we talked
at for hours of plans
for summers and rivers,
where I marvelled at
the new mystery just
inches of white linen
away?
You are still present,
dresssed warmer than
necessary, tame enough
to be understood, to
say that you too are
curious about how
we might go places.
The waiter looms,
inadvertently breaking
the news that your're
really back home, perhaps
in a relieved apron state
that may fit you just fine
for all I ever knew.
