On the corner of Fullum and Marie-Anne
today at three o’clock
there will be an earthquake.

Because she didn’t opt for the winter tire package,
Louise Therrien’s new Kia will skid on the ice
that has accumulated at the crosswalk on Fullum at Marie-Anne,

right beside Baldwin park
where Eric Maisoneuve was pulling his infant son David
on his new, his first, CCM toboggan this afternoon.

Today at three o’clock
on the corner of Fullum and Marie-Anne
Louise and Eric’s worlds will collide and shake.
