Pig
by Andrew Lander
She had a heavy cold
So I suppose it was a little mean
Of me to ask her to suck me.
But she was a good girl.

“Do you swallow?”
I asked.

“Would you swallow the mucous
from my nose?” she replied.

“Christ!” I shuddered. “Of course not.”

“Then why must men think
women like to swallow their snot?”

“Because we’re selfish,” I retorted.

“Pig!”

I didn’t ask again.
