i write passive aggressive notes for leftover food
and wonder if writing will do its job. you
have to focus on the writing itself. pork
in the belly of the beast. no sweet. suckled pig
and honey-sweet blossom. deep in the stamen,
the stem changes in each repetition. leaves curl
up around the neck. do we go imported or do we
go native? if you leave for work food is fair game.
rabbits paw at our faces, but i touch yours and
my eyes close like cycles of the moon.
