Transference ~ Sunday, August 18, 2024

One day, she woke up
never for a good reason
everything changes

decidedly, cup
after cup of black coffee
yet, as each season

shifts and exchanges
heat for cold and back again
each sheet of toffee

shattered and broken
holds sweetness in each morsel
every unspoken

word, how Nita fell
on hard times, as if to feign
kisses and bear hugs
empty promises

undermines her provinces
projects words at slugs
