We sit on your floor,
the carpet dappled with cigarette burns,
both of us as transparent
as your shirt from too much wear.
We drink warm Sunny D,
peel melted kit-kats from their slippery wrappers.
I could live on this meal or less.
You hold possibility
like a shiny glass bauble
my eyes transfixed by the oily glow.
