dinner with just a friend

[she_is_a_liar]

famished and resigned i took my second course
staring over candlelight

at empty eyes pouring with remorse

she passed the salt
as if my fault
but our repast had turned to mush

so we downed the wine
to kill the rest of our time
should have known she was such a lush

tablecloth:red

the maitre 'd: dead

the entire fucking waiting staff, gone, bullets in their heads.

always falling down.
always climbing up.
