House Guest by Kristina WoodhillI knew there was something
special
about mad scurrying sounds
in the pantry
something hyper
determined
a joie de burrowing
a bon mot directed at delicate chewing
dark with no cream
sipping scorned,
straight
to mainlining dry grounds
oh, the irony
of a non-coffee drinker
to have on shelf
coffee bags for unexpected guests!
might I also offer
a tiny piece of cheese appetizer
on a small rectangular cutting board
a spring, you say
what spring? 11/09/2015 Author's Note: ;)
