i had a warm orange.
as i chewed, the juice
felt warmer, like acid
dripping down my throat ;
cleansing, burning.
~
the moon was full
and it was on fire.
it smiled at me
mockingly, and i kept
chewing on the orange
~
until i could feel my
stomach melt and squeeze
like it does when i am hungry,
except i was feeding it
so i did not understand why …
~
the orange is done and
so am i, but i keep
going back to grab the moon.
isn’t it silly of me to forget that
it burns me every time ?
