I remember…

how white everything was.

Funny which senses start
to talk to you;
telling of a world
you’ve experienced only
through imagined.

Tiles weren’t dirty,
yet not clean,
all the bleach
in the world
never clears
the stench
of
years
worth
of puke
at the nurses station

All slippers have smiles on them
If you don’t see them,
it’s only cause you haven’t
looked hard enough

Deoderant,
as of course mouthwash,
contains alcohol.
one is forbidden
to be admitted with it.

But alas,
the joke was on me.
Asked: did you drink in the last 24 hours?
Replied: yeah, at my going away party?

One week in detox is
not
a funny punchline.
