Intimacy,
Great when you are feeling it.
Watching it?
Not so much.

That happy couple over there,
Holding hands,
Shivering with excitement.
They leave me cold.

Chasing rainbows
On a rainy day in any town.
Together,
I note to myself.

Should I tell them they are in danger?
About to step in dog shit?
Would they hear me shouting
So deaf and blind with love?

I do not shout,
Smirking at the sight.
But know

Jealousy
Great when you are watching it
But feeling it?
No, not so much.
