Lush

the bottle’s décor did not even
embody a “cheap kind of pretty”

but the reflective liquid
from the damp of a dark sun fall
courted my expression with
doting oblivion and
short breathed lies

we do indulge
in a give and take accord-

and I take it,
every morning
with 3 fingers full of aspirin,
that expired twelve weeks ago..

but the pain over-exposés me
subdued,
with my knees
at the skin of teeth
