After some time, I wake up
And my thoughts scramble like the eggs from grandma’s frying pan
Rusting in the clean marble kitchen like in those old movies
Where I watched a husband kiss his wife
Only to see her slam her face into his fist frames later
The purplish welt shaped like the untouched eggs left on the plate
Another day–
Uneaten.
