"I make a Sprite can disappear in my mouth" – Lil’ Kim

Every night during a bland July, I went to the bar ready
to put as many bodies after him as the summer could hold.

Home-grown panacea, I choked on the cloud of sweat
from all the real people clotted outside the doors. Pretended

to be just like them. I would drink to gut rot. Until every noise ran from my head. Burned my bestiary and dizzied into a different kind

of ache.
