getting dumped. again.

exactly what it looks like
pushing dirty mop water 
around the floor
so that when you walk in tomorrow morning
all you will notice is the chairs 
out of place

it gets later and later
and i haven't gone running

and thats it!
i will never speak to him again
just
like 
that.
I will analyze everything
and try to pull some playing cards
from the stringy, flesh-lined gap
i will try to make a perfect poached chicken
from moments of raw onion and cold fat

I will try, my very damndest
not to call or text 
because it is all
very clear. 
it was all said.
don't act like
you are confused
because you're not. 

he is, and if you think you can get something
out of his confusion
with just a little deception
just a tiny bit
of a fine guilt sauce
over a bed of fluffy, delicate manipulation
please write your giddy love stench off
as something not worth all the sweat.
