ten years,
how have you managed,
you were 23, 24
now look at you,
out of state, left behind
you bought a house
you now teach college
and you're still married
and you still tell me
that were you not,
it might be me-- but
look where i am,
stereo total on the hi-fi
i run upstairs to be left
alone with my burning thoughts
that you unwittingly hone
your advice, do not pine,
what's it accomplish, to what
end--
and you say, if you envision yourself
spending the rest of your life...
marriage will suit you just fine,
yes, though i'll still chase your ghost.
