second floor
watches the street
the drunks and homeless sleep
the boys on skateboards
a car now and then
looking for parking
or maybe just looking
partly she watches
the corner store
groceries and whatnots
where she thought he was going
the night he told her
"I'm going to get some cigarettes"
what is it now?
five years?
yes, the girl is four
and he has never seen her
she smiles when she remembers
he didn't even smoke
