Divorce is not something that happens suddenly.
It takes a long time coming,
it takes a long time to accept it coming
On the horizon you see the weather long before it arrives.
The barometer falls, the air pressure rises
like a migraine darkening the sky inside
The man who was larger than life
recedes, sometimes reappears in dreams
and all is forgotten and even forgiven.
