Too soon?

An ocean's kicked up
Stormed into your favorite
shared space of early afternoon
Greyhounds

toss speech back forth clips
loaded pries at what was once
friendship

I'm so sorry is swallowed
spurned

search out forgive in
should have stopped, but kept going

and an unflinching desire to marry
her unpenitent face with asphalt
