The Tablespoon
Fast-pitched
Tablespoon
Across the room
Embedded in her thigh
Penetrating cry
Excruciating pain
Head whirls
Sees stars
Tears flow
Unstick tablespoon?
Rapid quick, just do it
Tablespoon
Shape tattooed on thigh
Tablespoon leaves
Welts, bruises, pain
Six months
Longer
Tablespoon
Bruises fade away
Tablespoon
Forever triggers
Memory
Never fades.
