Wet Gravity

Failure

She was giddy


with remorse


As she skipped


river stones


Off slick rapid


rushing heads


Babies belched


from below





Clenching shame in


her stomach


It felt the same as the


last time


Cramming fear in her


white fists


Hoping this is the


last time





She put rocks in


her pockets


Shrunk away from the


water's edge


Fell down hard by a tree





She stuffed shame in


her pockets


It felt the same as the


last time





She crammed fear in her


white fists


And hope this is the


last time





Brainsqueals


Same as the last time


Brainsqueals


She hope this is the


last time
