Zach Busby- Jana Horn
zach steps into
my car
i vomit in my mouth
a little
gross
when i am around him
everything dies
and surrounded
by the dead everything
and the juxtaposition of his eyelashes
i am so
underwhelmed
we sit at waffle house
a beautiful girl orders a “strawberry topped waffle”
and suddenly
when juxtaposed with his eyelashes
and the chronically unimpressed waitress
and the tiny flakes of strawberry embedded in the previously frozen checkered bread product
i think
i
understand
zach is the waffle
where are the strawberries
i am suddenly
lost in
e x i s t e n t i a l i s m
we walk outside
zach gets back in my car
for some god-forsaken reason
why
i vomit
again
