Jealousy

January 7, 2017
By Anonymous

Jealousy tastes like a rotting egg
Slowly filling your nose
You begin to beg
Waiting for help as your breathing slows
Feeling the warmth of jealousy from your chest to your leg
Jealousy how quickly it grows
Until the body rids itself rotting egg
The way a branch rids itself of a crow
