The Unknowing.

Airing wet sheets in warm weather
Whether we are together
Strange comfort from a distance
Was it decided?
We weren't decided
It was undecided

Staring at wedding photos
While our child scampers loco
Who were we then?
Was it strange?
It was strange
There was strangeness

Our honeymoon was unsettling
We spent our time scuttling
From one bottle of Gin to another
Was it flattering?
We were not flattered
It was unflattering

Who decides where we go now
Disease or discomfort
Or just a lack of knowing how
We are the last to know
The last knowing
The unknowing
