Keyboard

…may I talk of me qwerty
pretty please?

I have thrown up all over it
wept into it

passed out and crashed me forehead
onto it

Every week
I buy a new one

The man says I'm mad
but you say nothing

Heartless

A wedge
like a block of cheese
wrung out
twisted by two old hands
splodges a sticky drop
onto your table

There, I say, proudly,
please appreciate

But, I guess, I see it magnified
like a tear stuck in my eye

and you've got gallons
