monday

i cannot believe it -
all the waiting is finally over
anticipation has met its match
monday has indeed arrived.

us, a faux-married couple?
you spurn my cheese
at our makeshift picnic
on the grass in my backyard.

laughable horror films
proprietary squeezes
me jumping in surprise
you calling me out...

interminable hand holding
catcalls and offerings of food
making out at red lights
close calls on the highway.

all of that matters not
when remembering back
to that perfect first kiss
we shared on monday.
