On Third Thought

I was mad at him---

really fucking mad

because on Monday she loved her life

and people

and things that you should love

And he took everything from her---

and turned her into a ghost

for no good reason---

just because he could

And the thing of it is---

today, he was in a new way

with a new walk

with a new prop

and it all made me vomit in my mouth

just a little bit

but it never

not even once

not even for a second

it never even crossed his mind
