Spy in the House of Love


Are you a spy in the House of Love,
Careful to erase evidence
   of your obsessive betrayals?
I am. 

Doing things I'm ashamed of--(why?)
There's no other term--
In the workshop, during quiet trips 
   to the bathroom, wherever. 
On the street,
Sitting at the table, 
In my mind...

Perhaps she is, too--
Both of us in the same household--
Behind our facades--
Unbeknownst to each other,
Awaiting mutual discovery.
