I Do and I Did

i had
a wife
twice if

only the
second of
each minute

i sleep
single in
a double

bed but
instead of
cozy warmth

i have
a mess
of paper

and
pens
and 

bottles
of water
and boxes

of crackers
and cereal it
almost seems

surreal
but really
the objects

occupying
the other
side of

my bed
are me
without

bodily
form
