After collapsing, I cried,
"This day has wiped me out."
She looked over, "Funny.
I do not see the straw
that broke your back."
I asked, "Are you suggesting
that I am somehow related
to camelus dromedarius?"
"Go far enough back and we
all managed to pull ourselves
out of the sea without
much complaint."
Smiling, I said, "You need
to change careers, as you make
a great same-day, care technician."
She smiled, too. "I like your
words when you lie there broken,
all humped over and distant
from ecstasy."
