They danced
In a vacant hotel
In the middle of
What once was Indianapolis
Its windows kicked out
By falling fire
In a matter of hours
The invading army would
Swallow them whole
And the rest of the city
Like a tidal wave
And so they sought out
One last moment of solace
In this miracle still standing
They took refuge
In an interior room
On the highest floor
When they shouldered down the door
It was as if they were checking in
For a long weekend stay
The bed was made
The bath towels:
Two swans kissing
Atop a pair of
Neatly folded bathrobes
There was a bottle of wine
On the table
The mini fridge was stocked
And the snacks untouched
They couldn't believe their luck
And for a moment they didn't
She thought she was seeing
What was not there
And left the room
With her blackened hands
Clenching the sides of her face
He followed her out
And told her that
If she had gone mad
Then he had gone mad too
And that they could be mad together
In their little room
He spun on the faucet
And cold water ran out
Black and then brown
And then clear
They knew they could not drink it
But they stopped up the drain
And drew a bath
The bath was cold
But they pretended it was warm
As they slipped in
One and then the other
They took turns
Running the small bars of soap
Over each other's skin
And they were surprised
By how gentle they could be
When they weren't surviving
He grabbed for one of
