Pop Goes the Weasel

by Anastasia Shows

Cold
as the ice cream
that i ate
outside my Grandmother's
house as a child.
I feel
D-I-S-T-A-N-T
the sliding fall of night
bathes me in
regret for
NEVER
giving you the
chance
you deserved.
Nose stuck high,
I
lathered my hands
in Fear
allowing you
to
S
L
I
P
through
my fingers
into
the arms
of
ANOTHER.
and here i am,
flagging down the
ice cream truck,
ALONE.

That's definitely a strong image. No question there.
