saltier by Angela Thomaseverything looks like it does,
holding up a chocolate chip cookie,
too close to your eyes so that
all the colors around it blur.
i try to concentrate on your hands,
remembering im drunk again.
why am i always drunk when making love?
the bottom of the cookie touches my tongue first,
it seems somehow saltier than the last bite.
you leave and i munch on the cookie,
little crumbs littering my shirt like glitter,
someone calls me a mess and i giggle,
but look, im sparkly, im sparkly. 01/02/2004 Posted on 01/02/2004 Copyright © 2024 Angela Thomas
