They
uneasy seatmates
on the island ferry
she
commoditized
with fancy dress and jewels
he
over preening
in Wall Street pinstripes
she
seething
with obvious disgust
he
careful
under public gaze
gambling losses
new mistress
another murder?
they
inching together
ever so slightly
compromises remembered
tangled web intact
as they disembark.
