Huh. (Poem 19, caught up, just need one for today...i'm on track, i promise)

Why not try to write a love poem?
It's simple:
crack two eggs together
and reduce the yolk
and egg white
to a whip --
that sound, that cracking sound of a split shell,
it's so goddamn familiar...

like the sound of eyes closing
in bed.
