taste

taste it for all of us. drag your teeth along the salt meshed with the sugar, the anticipation of it. straddle the zenith of darkness and bareness, and savour it. watch it teeter, loose, rocking on the precipice and blow on it, gentle. let gravity take over, too big to be true. give yourself over, let the glitch take place, self split in two. reconcile that there is nothing you have ever known, and swallow to finish, your own.
