Second Hand

[RiverNotch]

I picked up her habits
like candy wrappers on the ground,
frowning from a sense of obligation
and disgust.

I didn't throw them out
when she left.

Now I'm rotting with the filth,
and the stench is worse than a skunk
in heat.

Nice build up. Absolutely disgusting, such silly lost loves (also littering -- and I think I'm a little obsessive compulsive about both, which is a bonus). Lovely work.
