A Clean Getaway


Across the dark room she threw her head back and laughed,
and the blood stopped cold in his veins.
A little blacker around the eyes now,
but there could be no mistaking it.
In his haste to leave, he banged his pinstriped hips
right into the drink-sticky table
and limped into the night,
shivering.
