there is something so
there is something so
unappealing
about riding
around in your
mercedes – the
sickly smell of
the leather interior,
the aimlessness of the
rides, and the sudden
shifts between
baiting, berating,
and boasting

you came back to the
city from a week at the
lakes smelling
different, new. at first

the shelf behind
our bathroom
mirror with all
of your familiar things

the conditions – the sounds,
the tastes, even that puncturing
aroma of sweet and savory,
the one that beckons bite me
