GUEST POST // sustenance by Tremaine L. Loadholt

miss cooking for him
and on most days, for her, too
I cook anyway
energy needs assistance
I thrive on this love

cold comfort

no one wants to die
no one wants to say goodbye
no one wants to cry
void their headstone of the lie
that there is a by the by

the moment before she smiles

just call me by name
make me turn swiftly around
lift my lowered hood
beneath a leaky awning
make us blab till the rain ends

fade to black

pooch, go away now
i know you crave attention
(cannot feel my arms…)
i’m open to your absence
happy to be anywhere
