A Chipped Prescription

a pissed off dissipate
wears the suede of soft
persuasion and presumes
to take this occasion to quake
like a quaker making mistakes
gettin the shakes, doubles the stakes
just to put a little spice in the game.

Nausea is plausible but overmedication
is a better excuse when the dog bites
or the bee stings. or the system goes down
or the phone rings and if we’re still in love
when the swelling goes down
I’ll be around
I’ll be around
