Our bloated love,
Turgid with gas, belly-hill skywards.
Bag of chips rocking on the counter
Full on emptiness. Bags of
Pigs sunbathing. Disgusting. If you
Pushed us we would explode.
Pimple from our teens: those
Were bad habits. There is a child
Warbling at our loss: our
Love leaking ink where the paper is
Jammed. Black mascara
Tears. Gone wrong. Oozing, begging
You please leave me and move
On. Oozing, spittle dribbling, fingers
Prying at the corners of your mouth,
And you tried to speak
Pink gum flashing
Drool, transparent, tears. I brushed
Them off, back of hand and
All, gently smiling. You poor
Creature
Rotting in the sun.
