She sluices herself with shadows
Could’ves and Should’ves
Iterations of opportunity absconded
He lilts in feigned levity
Guile and Wit
Opiates of stolid distraction
Solitary cells reduced by shame
Slideshow projections
On white walls
Tiny fingers and names potential
Birthdays that are just days
She self-flagellates
He self-medicates
She dreams of pogroms,
He has long since stopped dreaming
