caring day to day

or maybe, legs crossed, her biggest turnoff,

unannounced,

is caring day to day.

She’s in love and out of nowhere,

she’s showering every other night,

regularly,

wakes up like

get me out

give me grime

longs for the smokey hand

of marble darkness

to spin, to spiral with

truths, piling up

in moldy coffee cups

by the unmade bed
