“The Morning After”
A small psalm to the dishes.
Stagnant water sits in the sink,
About as welcome as that call at 3am.
I don't want you here.
You didn't want to be here.
And yet you answered the phone.
It's my responsibility to wrap this up.
Like the rubbish from the food
That stained the kitchen floor.
We made a real mess.
Call yourself an Uber.
We're done here.
