Poems
Mar 2018
this is how you say no
flatten your tongue
slip it between your teeth
n.
your little lips
forming an elipsis
o.
put them together
and may you declare
a word youβd so carefully denyβ
no.
you spell it out
on table tops
shout it
from the rooftops
and when cursed hands
seek to defile your shrine
may you exclaim
"i am mine"
for my precious friends with hearts too soft to say no. may you be a little more selfish.
