my shoe's untied.
strawberries

I dipped strawberries in a bowl of sugar.

The juice trickled down,

looked like blood on a face full of moonlight.

I gorged myself on them,

staining my lips with their insides 

until my stomach hurt. I felt sick.

I wondered if the sun ever felt like that.

Its belly too full, 

round with something sweet.
