Love’s Playground <strong>of</strong> Me’s and You’s<br />
That European wine café -<br />
not merely the decadent destination<br />
<strong>of</strong> our midnight rendezvous,<br />
but love’s playground <strong>of</strong> me’s and you’s…<br />
Months after the end <strong>of</strong> us,<br />
An old yearning made me lust.<br />
If not with you,<br />
Perhaps I could share that velvet loveseat<br />
With my current beau.<br />
Meeting there, as we used to,<br />
A shock rolled through me,<br />
With and without you.<br />
A pillaging <strong>of</strong> the Dionysian lair:<br />
The walls cryptically bare,<br />
Paintings stripped,<br />
Plush cushions ripped,<br />
The windows dark.<br />
Fire burnt out.<br />
