She said she’s not gay –
Most of the time –
And I said
"…"
All I could say was
"…"
I craned my neck to look
At her, maybe to
Shame her in saying
“Just kidding!”
But the Twix in my mouth
Continued to grow heavier in
Density and some bits
Had even eloped with
The roof of my mouth.
I thought of how she can’t
Afford to be gay.
“You’re too ugly,” I was
About to say, but instead
"…"
Came out as I
Shoved another bar of
Twix in my mouth and
shifted my weight in
turning away. |
