Divorce


night       you drive around this bend
that is strangely familiar
sea on the right
big hotels on the left

you look at the sea
moonlight on the water
you round the bend
and you’re high above it all

you hear a woman scream
a body shoots down at an angle
like a meteorite
crashing to earth

someone rushes over to her
you see her shape in the ground
you hesitate
then decide not to go over
