Quality time

Our affair was a musical interlude


Our affairs became ajar with paperwork

and dishes and mopping and mowing

and little things that order the weeks

Time spent planning

Time spent doing

Meaningful family time

all these new motions seem innocuous

but tear at the fabric

Of once sweet caring touches.
