Disappointment like
a kidney punch makes it hard
to smile through the pain.
Disappointment like
a kidney punch makes it hard
to smile through the pain.
I’ll Dramamine my
self into torpidity,
sleep through drink service.
“She hurt my daughter,
so I wanted to hurt her.
Can’t you understand?“
Inertia roosting
inside me like a hen un-
willing to lay eggs.
Fever like a sun
burn – every surface blazing –
yet chilled to the core.
