"Like a wildflower, you must allow yourself to grow in all the places people never thought you would."


Your pearly white,

straighter than both you or me

teeth crunch together.

 

I watch as a spoonful of my favorite cereal

collides with the ten-thousand buds

that line your tongue.

 

You shake the empty box

disturbing the peacefully coexisting

crumbs and plastic lining.

 

Our eyes meeting

as another bite

rolls around your mouth,

 

your throat jumping

with every swallow,

 

and “we need more cereal”

spilling out like milk.
