chomp

i didn't understand
sitting stabbing jabbing jabbering
over pineapple chunks
why are you crying
sitting here trying
to catch up on your life
chewing, the luxury waste of disposable
cutlery cut chomp spin
your stories for sympathy
i don't understand
squelching my unease as your eyes flood
biting into the gross exaggeration
of corn syrupy pies
my saccharine lies
