He tossed and turned me I couldn’t help

             but slinkishly slide

             my words bounced around as I tried

             explaining but he escalated petty plights

             these flights

             faulting our foundations; I insisted we

             calm down

             and down we went this tumbling with the

             tide

             no pride in our divide, now division

             I wanted to turn around; start over with
             precision

             I told you I preferred stable ground

             I prefer hazard less hikes abound

             not heights, trekking unmarked trails

             too unpredictable of a flight

             can you see in-spite

             of the whimsy

             we ain’t getting nowhere, our love now

             fragile and flimsy
