INTOLERANCE

Boy,

you can certainly

hold your liquor

but love

that is one intoxicant

you don’t seem to have

the stomach for.

SPOTLIGHT

It doesn’t excite me

to be desired

in a sneaky sideways

glance.

Not when I know

how it feels

to have a man

unable to take

his eyes off of me.

PUDDLES

He tells me

my eyes look

like oceans

and I tell him

they are just puddles

that too many dirty feet

have splashed in.

REBELLIOUS

He says

I’m easy on the eyes

but hard to swallow.

Simple lips

but tough talk

like meat stuck in molars

and maybe

that will keep

the sheep at bay

while the wolves can play

howling at the moon

in honor of her

rebellious cycles—

him, still flirting

with the stars

and all of her

pretty likenesses.
