Two chairs, side by side
By the fire extinguisher
Shadows of calm foreboding
Footsteps all outside
Breath of breath my only music
Percolates the present’s presence
He stands in the doorway
With cigarette and mobile phone
She is further away
He remonstrates
It is a one way conversation
We don't do that confession stuff
Otherwise I would happily
Share a chair with you
Sit and talk, you know
Side by side
Welcome my brother
Please share my stillness
This is one cool place
On one warm day
