And if we ever fight, always remember this:

by April Halprin Wayland

-~-
Big Argument with Leslie
Arguing
Is strange.
The thing we are climbing
Becomes B R I T T L E.

One of us falls,
Then the other,
Shouting
As we drop.

Angrily
Blaming,
Loud;
Deaf.

In falling,
In the darkness,
At least there are
Words

Shouted up–
At least we are glaring
Into each other’s
Eyes

At least
We are trying
To crash into each other
As we fall.
