An early dinner

I skip all around the paper

eating my

way through the words

swallowing ideas whole

they sit on my stomach

like paper mâché

rocks

I unbutton

my pants to help release the pressure

burp up nouns verbs prepositions

gassy commas spicey periods

the greasy taste of adverbs

sits

heavy

on my tongue

a black lager washes away the raunchy taste of literary

indigestion
