I met midnight knowing I'd been used,
but you had the decency
to let me sit until morning,
wallowing in the sweat of my insecurity,
so at dawn I
reeked of desperation.
And so thank you for throwing me
out before noon, and
without the standard runny eggs
and bloody bacon, since
I couldn't stand my stench,
nevermind pig's fat and
babies' brains.
And I'm sorry I'm still so bitter,
but I cracked a few ribs clattering to the
bottom of the barrel, and I so
loathe to see I am, again,
recyclable.
