Quench

8 seconds

I’m so thirsty
my mouth is dry
my tongue sticks to the rough roof of my mouth
my daughter is downstairs with a firey friend whom I do not like
I pay rent but I am stuck up here
I hear the dude’s voice and my skin is crawling
creepy dude, creepy dude
too bad the tap water in chico sucks—i just want to whet my whistle

(2013)

I'm writing something everyt ime I come across this page, something from that very moment in time
