Down By the River

Some day she would see
the need to be on time.

Some day he would learn to
choose his words more carefully.

There was their mental health to consider.

She had seen the enemy.
He had been innocent.

There were security issues here.

Her record was clean.
His memory recorded everything.

There was their imaginations to manage.

She liked to be in
a cab that skidded.

He liked to be in a
helecopter that stood still.

There were motion negogiations.

She had to brush her teeth
every time they went out.
He had to take a piss.

It was all about keeping a low profile.
