untenable

Untenable

 

Here’s a puzzle for you she says

and throws the pieces in his face

 

They flutter like confetti

take their time to settle

 

half his face

 

a ringed finger on a woman’s hand

 

something out of focus in the background

 

She turns around and leaves

righteous with his imagined grief

 

He tries to unimagine her being unbereaved
