we might kill each other

she said
we might kill each other if we spend three days together
this person I carried for nine months, suckled and encouraged
through life, she says we might kill each other.
that hurts, I told her,
I reminded her that we had fun in France
she seems to have forgotten
somehow fun times together now threaten
to kill,
I could no more kill her than myself,
yet I stand warned.
