Charlie Hill<br />

Arguing about songs<br />

And sometimes we sit<br />

in the kitchen<br />

and argue<br />

over which songs<br />

should soundtrack<br />

the spaces<br />

of our conjoined divide.<br />

Then we laugh,<br />

bitter wistful,<br />

at the casual accord<br />

that once greeted suggestions<br />

of any tune really,<br />

to help pass the time<br />

between going to bed,<br />

making love on the sofa,<br />

having sex on the table<br />

between us.<br />
