“But you know, that s[he’s] watching.
S[he’s] laughing, s[he’s] turning.
S[he’s] holding [his]er tonic like a cross.
The room’s suddenly spinning.
S[he] walks up and asks how you are.
So you can smell [his]er perfume.
You can see [him]er lying naked in your arms.

And so there’s a change, in your emotions.
And all these memories come rushing
like feral waves to your mind.
Of the curl of your bodies,
like two perfect circles entwined.
And you feel hopeless and homeless
and lost in the haze of the wine.

Then s[he] leaves, with someone you don’t know.
But s[he] makes sure you saw her.
S[he] looks right at you and bolts.
As s[he] walks out the door,
your blood boiling
your stomach in ropes.
Oh and when your friends say,
“What is it? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
