A Stone in a Glass of Wine

passing away

what do you get out of it?

when will I get out of it?

 

a foot sinking into the ground

a sock soaked w/ water

the green towel drys off liquid

needles

it molds the locks

 

no one’s told you why the alarm bell

rings?

 

do you have a minute – wait

never mind

 

I eat words constantly that my stomach

can’t handle

so I vomit with

knees on the bathroom floor
