Bottled Up

What riding on a Greyhound bus gives you.

wow dear

            yet again

you have redefined

 

            the limits

 

            of personal space

 

fill the empty spaces

 

you can’t just hide

your every movement

 

            i see every motion

in your looking glass

 

i blink back

 

from the next row

 

            seat 43

we’re burnin

 

unadulterated reticence

ripping the scent from you

fermenting for later

 

i sell every part of you

 

you can’t realize

you’ve just turned

something

            so special 

 

                                    on its head

Too risky?

well, im not sure what you mean by risky. the form? i liked this, has a feel of hiding in plain sight, and i like the details you provide, but i dont feel like i have enough to work with in order to make heads or tails. has a bit of a comic mood to it (?). enjoyed the read. zig
