without... a haiku to lockjaw

by Angela Thomas

lockjaw, do you know
the hardest part? i love him,
and he, he loved me.

Lockjaw goes both ways! Not a true haiku, but I sincerely appreciate the cleverness, and matter-of-factness of this piece.

Nice write, Angela! I especially enjoy the tense change by the last stanza -- it catches one off guard completely, and thus shies away from the typically "woe is me" love poem -- great job.
