^^^Ditto on the above. Typo their L10?
Addition Equals Multiplication
One plus one equaled two.
Those sweet first months
we huddled in our cocoon,
slid against each other
watching for abrasions,
absorbing our differences
until one plus one equaled one.
Ah, what a sweet respite
before the world came rushing in:
the kids, their kids, the grieving moms,
siblings, in-laws, an ex or two
who pull and pluck at each free hour,
a gang of a hundred to juggle
until they or we drop.
We wallow in rare quiet, remembering
when one plus one equaled two, then one.
(Ugh, April 3rd will be a new day)
