it was clean, it always was

whatever she did, however she pleased

nobody knew a word about her dreams

she had half made up her mind to give up on herself

warm and cozy it was to remove people’s shit

no melodrama, no shriek at destiny

it was fated she would be so

she licks out your cockroaches and lizards

with mopping efficiency

but do not ask her about her nightmares

she won’t get to run away neither could you.
