this too, they want
April 9, 2017
this too, they want
they want so much that they want what is unwanted
the slippy seeds inside arrogant fruits
the throaty anger that forcibly frothed over the brim in the wake of time's negligence
the plates still embossed with the brittle film of yesterday's gluttony
the words hung up in heads before they had a chance to dry
this too, they want
