Generic Relationships

i think it's prose like for the most part but an enjoyable to read.
i have very little constructive feedback to give because if it were altered too much it would lose it's coldness in the last stanza.

thanks for the read.

It was a broken ministry,
just your mother, your dad,
eternal undertaker in common Saturday, is Saturday a place?
and a host of other guests. i'm not sure [a host], does [just] in the 2nd line of this stanza any good

You smiled when I walked over,
wearing your black trousers, like me,
instead of your usual black skirts
that mimic your father's profession.

Handing out samples in a grocery store;
I guess when every girl's dream is to become a succubus,
the legitimate ones have to find legitimate work too.
So was it you? Everyone thought you were my sister,

except your parents, of course; and thank goodness for that.
Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take you home
and let you steal so much of my soul.
Something your boyfriend has never had to offer.
