Cause Of Their Separation

you may find it shallow
but the real cause of their broken
bridge

or thread that snapped
at the end

a few years
specifically only about a year

she dropped soap
at the toilet bowl

and it didn't flush out anymore
she could not believe

how a child in him
still works

he left her
preoccupied with a woman who is clean
