A Shiny Countertop

Featured Replies

A Shiny Countertop.

 

 

 

Remembering everything in one second.

 

Emotion regurgitates it in a single drop.

 

Gathering,

 

My tear falls

 

Just a piece of meat seeping salty,

 

Like a jar of cold water in heat.

 

 

 

Emotion fills this jar.

 

Condensation,

 

Beading

 

 

 

I pick up the cold jar from the countertop,

 

With shallow lines in my fingertips.

 

The beads of liquid,

 

The slippy hands.

 

Colliding with the cement below,

 

Spill

 

I stand in horror,

 

As my emotion climbs the air.

 

Rudely expelled by the sun-sizzled concrete.

 

 

 

I am paralyzed

 

Numb

 

My jarred emotion now rain,

 

Unforgiven by umbrellas all over the world.

 

 

 

I look back at the now-empty countertop,

 

A wet patch still remains where the jar no longer does.

 

 

 

A few drops of liquid

 

A shiny counter top

 

Encapsulating my being

 

And the numbness felt.
