Separation

The inspiring line:

“I am a man: little do I last

and the night is enormous.”

-Brotherhood, Octavio Paz

Of all the things you left at my home, I

find the ring to be the most obnoxious, I am

not a

vindictive man,

nor am I driven to insanity for a little

justification. You did what you had to do.

As did I,

but now, as at last

the finality is drawn on a paper and

signed gleefully by the

feasting hunters of the night,

the ring sleeps and just is,

its silence is enormous.
