it was beautiful
she walked into my supermarket
over by the meat freezer
I looked sidelong
i was sure it was her
we swam in the french ocean
amidst the coral
made love on the black sand
under the volcano
 
we were inseparable
attached at the hip
for months at a time
 
she looked down
selected a shrink-wrapped package
of london broil
i don't think so she said
regarding me carefully
and sashayed down the aisle
 
in her wake
a familiar fragrance
wafted away
