­Summer Flu

I was wearing the new dress

My prettiest

When my boyfriend’s sickness

Took me

I was petting the tongue of

Yo the bird

The macaw on the corner of

North and Charles

Yo was telling me how

My dress looked like

A dress someone at the beach

Would spontaneously

Get married in

He said the

Dress was so white

It electrified even my

Pale skin into a burning color

 

He plucked one

Of his small feathers

A yellow one

From his chest

And handed it to me

 

I threw up

 

Yo held back my hair

In his claw
