Kung Pao Chicken Breath

It's Not Always Roses

Tao Joannes
I can taste your lunch
every time you part your lips
and when you get too close
it's sour.

I have to hold my breath
to keep from making
an ick face.

But everything else is perfect.

I want to frame it
dry it
bag it
can it
save it for when I'm lonely
and I wish I could grab
your stinky lips
and fall inside them.

Kung Pao
chicken breath
and all.
