I asked for my imaginary friend from elementary
to make his presence known and there was no
mystery coin
Instead, there was a late night cough, the swelling
of my esophagus so potent was it, the blood
came back up, enmeshed with my bile and phlegm
and there I found myself, lightheaded on my loveseat,
with my arms grasping at my belly, and a lover
on the bed his eyes reflecting back all the contents.
