triumph of hash browns

i've spent months
trying to digest
your empty words.
(carbonation is rough
on the sensitive stomach).

my new plan
is to indulge
in large amounts of breakfast food
and forget about you
all together.

i'm just trying to figure out
when the thought of hash browns
became more appealing
than the thought of you.

toothbrush revisited

I threw out
Your toothbrush

It was orange
And said “aquafresh”
but it’d served it’s purpose
and you’re supposed to get
a new one
every year.
