Divorce

A safe-deposit box, a black-and-white TV, a Christmas gift

A maple leaf, a two-inch brook trout, an execution

Raising money for a softball team, sharing a bag of rock candy, making gummy-bear jewelry

An Appalachian Trail marker, a noodle shop, a white suit and matching fedora

The reading chair, the smiley chair, the saddle chair

A misdiagnosis; a long, wet kiss; a ring from the garden

Wife-swapping, ten fucks, a master’s thesis in comparative literature

Mescaline, step aerobics, Pike’s Peak

Miscarriage, divorce, electroshock therapy

Stolen clothes, a miniature copy of The Night before Christmas, a red halter top
