Over Done
eggshells have been walking on me,
heavily. stepping on my visage
with steel-toed boots and arthritic knees.
covering my clean, shaven chin, they
conga when I open my mouth,
swallow.

- "That's the price tag, no discounts, no bargains. Losing my first love was like living in a perfect house, with the perfect front porch and matching dormers where the key finally worked to let me in, until without enough warning, it caught fire and was gone, leaving a thin coat of ash that would gray my life for years, making me cry when I saw a perfect front porch or a light shining from an upstairs window."- The One & Only Aunt Nancy
