I am in love with
the trickle down theory.
So go ahead
& be fickle sweetheart,
tickle the inside of my throat
with your truth serum
& see if we are truly soul mates.

By the way,
in case you didn't notice,
there are fireworks exploding
just outside in the street.
It's a celebration.
I think somebody was released
from solitary
& it wasn't me.
