Dysphemism
ADHD forgets to feed the fish
and when she finally remembers,
it is dead at the bottom of the tank.
Well, I suppose dead is an understatement:
a mossy film embalms the body
(at least what is left of it)
its suction-cup maw putrefied
as it suckles the sickle of death.
Half of the body is there.
Half of it has disintegrated.
Imagine existing nowhere and everywhere
all at once; microscopic remnants
defile every particle of water long after
the rest of you has vanished.
