Oh No from Little Falls by Govier

Muttered conversations
in overcrowded grocery store lines
between middle aged divorcees
about how there’s a heat wave

and should they move or should they stay 

Either way you might not get the answer that you seek
Even if you wait a thousand weeks
Till the rivers turn to creeks

I’ll wait

Been five years since I moved here
when I first came I thought I’d leave within a few years
but now I’m glad I stayed
got no plans to move away 

Through the laughter and the chokes 
About how powerless we can be
It can happen suddenly 
Snap your fingers one two three
It can make it hard to breathe

oh no
