We talked, both of us,and the desk stood in-between.
Words from a side wereshoved across, while theones in response choked,limped to reach the other.
Hands on the desk made gestures,reached out to far endslike the wind on a wild day,picked things up and put down.
The desk was thin when he spoke,
but gained elephant weightwhen it was my turn,and hands below lay crushed.
We talked, I tried to,with a desk in-between.
