Linkahhh gotcha
I’ll write one... it might suck...
The Fork
by potato child
I count three fragments of eggshells
in my breakfast, on my plate
A fork, grasped in my hand, is suspended
in the air
It is heavy, eloquent. Rays of quivering light reflect apon it.
I hold my breath
With my eyes closed, and my teeth clenched,
I count to five
Five numbers fly out of my mouth, in a rush,
and suddenly,
My fork comes down, and my eyes fly open, and I realize
I am not where I was
I feel my toes scraping against cold water, my eyes sting with frozen air
a taste of salt in my mouth
A grand piano, floating on the ocean, a long, long distance from shore
carries a figure, dripping wet, shivering
a gleaming silver fork held in the air.
