Apology

Spit that apology

Outta your mouth

Stop snacking on

Poisoned-covered pain

Choking on that licorice shame

Vomit those apologies

Right onto the ground

Put new words in your mouth

Eat a big juicy fuck you

All of it. At once.

See that?

It cuts your tongue

Tastes sharp and sweet.

Like candied copper.

Like freedom.

Like you.
