escaping warmth
that threatens to suffocate
from bathing
in pools of jealousy
and germs
and maleficence
soaking
and saturating
until our feet rot off
from standing in sewage soup
but too weighed down
to step out of the swamp
just chew hay
swallow
vomit it back up
and keep chewing
sun beating on backs
burning
forgiveness is giving up
letting go, lazy
feeling something real is losing
but no one wins
sparks don't ignite in puddles
