Beat
Womb held infant heart
Mother's beat syncopated
Skipping
together
Cannot win alone
Marriage a three legged race
You beat
together
Pinball machined mind
No recognisable beat
ADHD
brain
Long
Long and winding road
Halts and hills and barriers
Sadness
overcome
Today is special
Fifty years long together
Anniversary
Longed to be with you
From those first dancing moments
In
step ever since
Crush
Crush opposition
Grind the bastards into dust
Whoops,
we're worse than them
Started with a crush
Deepened every year since then
Love tinged with respect
An underground crush
Subway train disgorges mass
Then
sucks it back in
Score
Crunch up the grape pips
Keep a very private score
Or do a
spit count
Keep a private score
And the partnership will end
In
acrimony
In private moments
She nail raked his scarred up back
And kept her own score
