Introvert

We spoke passionately while

walking with backs turned

One false step made the impression

of a fork in the earth


And with the dust-filled air now

too saturated to see

She confuses seclusion

for aversion


But ask yourself,

does a house cat feel contempt

when all he really is

                                     is wild?
