and they never second guess
the family motto
|toujours pur|

eleven comesandgoes
- to HOGWARTS -
go two more
of that noble, ancienthouse

the c r a c k s appear like
c l o c k w o r k
(rivalry induces hate)
- Gryffindor and Slytherin -
have split&severed Black and Black

he moves forward
she moves back
&& the gap
(once nonexistent)
has gone from small,
middling, to

he's laugh, defend
and after seven years
there's no recalling
when they called each other
"f r i e n d"

he by her hand
her by the mother's

|d e a t h|
