| Flush |
| by Jason Fisk |
| His bearing
was often mistaken for shyness when in actuality it was narcissism The beard that crept down his neck into his shirt was frequently mistaken for artistic contempt when in actuality it was the dark manifestation of depression poems were the only thing his melancholia allowed past its gloomy gates He never let anyone read what he wrote When finished writing he always ate his poem in hopes to absorb its perfection The passing was where he had been having difficulty of late how long should he let it sit in the toilet? Should he fish it out and put it in a zip-lock? Or flush it in artistic contempt? |
