Swirling your hand around in the murky kitchen sink
You pulled out the dishrag
You wrung it out, as if you were strangling it
And used the toxic cloth to wipe up your mess
Once you tired of cleaning
You threw the dishrag on the counter
Where it dried into a stiff misshapen grotesquery
And you just left it there, abandoned
You never finished cleaning the mess you made
You just forgot all about the dishrag
But the dishrag still exists, grotesque and toxic
Wondering what happens next?

Aloha, Amy — Yuk . . . I’ve seen a lot like that before I met Nancy and we got married. Love, Bill www.billworthbooks.com
