Poetry

Evelyn Dawn

My Salty Grin

I was born from a wound in your underbelly

Inspired by the foreground and its lessons

Caught only in the corner of your eye.

I glance up at you for a moment. Again.

You smile. I always liked how your teeth fit together

I speculate whether or not you are human.

One day,

We will hide in the ocean and disappear.

 

 

 

Don't ask me why I put this under "Poetry" and Dawn's other work under "Unfathomable Miscellany". I reckon it's a testament to my split personality disorder.
