EAVESDROPPING ON THE METRO 43

Voice lowered, she confides
one seat up that she can just slide
a tall cheap vase a couple inches over--the amplified
stethoscope's all set up, one quick connection
and she can hear every step of Irma and Bob:
how they fight, how they make it up. Flushing,
she bashfully pulls a curtain of hair back
behind burning ears.
