a germ,
buried deep
fed off my acrid mind
not yet ripe
but mushy
I miss your hands
weaving through my hair
clumsy braids
humming Piaf
flossing your teeth with poppies
my misery
was a late summer cherry pie
you are a spoiled child
asking for another piece
Powerful! Loved how you made
Powerful! Loved how you made me feel this.
