Description

(from my collection 'A Distilled Spirit)

'perils of greasy calamari'

he didn't so much kiss her from across the bar

than he devoured her face;

the calamari i'd just eaten

tasting even greasier on my tongue.

i swear if he kissed her one more time

i'd push my fingers down my throat.
