Two earnest meteorologists
Shared a
cubicle wall
Discussed
isobars during coffee breaks
Argued over
computer simulated forecasts
With
the fanaticism of baseball fans during a
pennant race
Her firm belief in theories of geographic interference
His undying devotion to historical precedence
Monday mornings were filled with
Toldyaso
And
Youshouldhavelistened
Their weekends were less structured
Unmade beds and unread newspapers
Soft voices and bare skin late at night
Dark rooms save the flickering light of a television
The Weather channel,
sound turned off.
