There was a guy named Casanova Boone
That Sarah met sometime in early June
Women would just swarm
She fell for the charm
Got hitched splitsville day two of honeymoon

An estranged couple teetering on the precipice
of splitsville are holed up on the fourth floor
of nowhere, their apartment. They're seeking refuge
from the covid-19 pandemic. Both decided to
quarantine together in hopes of salvaging
the crumbling state of their union. It was a bad idea,
a colossal mistake. Their attempt at reconciliation,
a total failure. Their toxic relationship almost as
as insidious as the deadly virus itself! Trapped
on the fourth floor of nowhere; sometimes they
seem like prison inmates tethered to each other.
All they wanted was to work through their issues,
but they've made matters infinitely worse.
Incessant fighting ensues. Murphy's law unravel
before their eyes. It's a glorious mess!

tear open the seal
thick folded papers land loud
eviscerated
like our forever, but how
soulmates aren’t supposed to end
