Surreptitious

a
My body surrenders
just as my mind did
ages ago.
Twitches&
glitches
here & there
more and more
often.

The rocking chair
sneers
& jeers
finally exulting
after our divorce.

I was not
one to have,
rather one
to sting
& stain.

It's all in the past
now
my future included.

Still I go on,
nervous
as a long-tailed cat
in a room full
of rocking chairs.
