This is not a real argument.
These words are like the ocean
in war movies from the past.
You are one of those character actorswho always plays the heavy.
See how our body doubles tumble and fight?
My anger's wig isn't on just right, and your sadness
is wearing the wrong blue sweater.
You’re leaving, a plot twist I can't quite believe--
the road behind you so blandly sunny.
And how do you know where you're going
with the steering wheel zipping through your hands,
fake palm trees fuzzing out of frame
in a rearview mirror that doesn't exist.
