Steam
Have you ever wished you could stay in the shower forever?
Letting scalding water
rinse away regrets,
mistakes,
flaws.
Letting the soft burn purify.
Watch it all spin down the drain.
Clouds of steam
carrying away the lighter things
that wont squeeze through the drain.
Lighter,
but bigger.
The huge blimps
stuffed with helium memories
ride the steam up,
up,
up.
You want your bad side to swirl
into the sewer, to rid yourself.
Lo and behold,
the tub
flooded
red.
