StainA Poem by Tom StroudI am definitely quite glad that the stain is gone, it was pretty f*****g gross.
I left that picture up, I don't know if I'll ever take it down.
This is a rite of passage, a pilgrimage I didn't agree to. I am blue, sullen. Watch me sink. Find somewhere under it all, Find me somewhere you wouldn't look, I won't find me again. _ That picture is still on my bed side table, But your bed side, is empty. Just that stain, A sordid reminder of what one cycle will erase, And I'll lose the last physical presence of you, But I've already lost a lot.
