And this is how it really looks

by Meghan Helmich

that thick tongue tumbles
over all of the love
(or some semblance of the word)
you will not share with me.

some emotion that
has been leaked all over
a lunchbox, made into a
cup of pudding or a

sandwich with the crusts
sliced away, ripped on
a diagonal. a grown boy
still eats mother’s kindness.
