It's Pretty Simple, Really

It's Pretty Simple, Really

When you get
mean drunk
and sarcastic,

and you
tell me things
that you think
are your
not having
a filter

but
are really
just your
hauling in
your lack
of self-control
and boundaries

because
you haven't
done the work
to integrate
your traumas
and abuses,

I get to feel
emotionally
battered
while I hold
your hair
out of the vomit
on the toilet seat.

And when
you're sober,
self-loving,
and emotionally
available,

your pussy
tastes
like butter pecan
ice cream,
my very favorite
obsession.
