Kerri Shying R # 289 - Narcissae


Narcissae

never saw his own reflection
in the sky      arm’s length

selfie sticks  are
not a patch on

his fake tan
the love machine keeps my

society in the tin can
laptop on his knee    the heating pad

a lover far more
constant than  you

ever tried to be  in all the time
we shared a bed

I count
the times

 you met my eye

  1. Love this one too Kerri - I've come back and read it a few times now. My first impulse was to say Ouch .... the heating pad wins hands-down!
