Here's to everyone's ex...this is as close as I get to country music lyrics...

E X A N N E X



I have forgotten
all the words
you whispered to me,

clasped right to my ear,
reinterpreting
the air going through.

And I can't remember why
I called you tonight;
bedside murmurs remind

me of uncalculated
things, this distance
that connects us,

still bewildered,
nothing to say.

"nothing to say"

But this is eloquent.

Speaking of exes, Melanie, here's a found ku, lightly adapted from a remark made recently by an acquaintance of mine.I've tried to stay close to the original comment, which is why it's spoken by a woman; no sex change is involved.

on the engagements page
my ex and his next—
he looks so handsome
