sprung. training

a year ago
i died twice

lines flat
splatted
in a choke gag
cough

a cackle
a dry heave
of infection

and began again

now i eat
dessert first

deserting vindaloo
in case
the mariachi
never plays
the

shut the fuck up
refrain
over salad

  2. Micael!

    There's something about this poem I especially like.

    Now I'm going to eat my desserts first too!
