Poem No. 31

Your words

Make my skin burn.


I flush from your

(attention),

Especially when you

(mention)

What you want to do with me.


You pretend

To transcend

The average, the mundane, the basic

But you’re just

A bust

Of an old president

With many monikers and Monicas,

And I am just

Another shelf

On which your head sometimes lies.
