Day 5: Agitation

Nostalgia
caught in your lung
like a disease
caughing up infection
to catch you broken

memory
stuck to the roof of your mouth
like the sweet stick of honey
misleading

you
an old western rerun on AMT
a soundtrack i thought i'd forgotten
something familiar
that gets caught
like dust under my eyelids

so here i am
eyes watering from the sting

unwilling to let the disease of you fall through me
no
i will hold you there
captive
in the gloss of my eyes
claim

you are just an allergy i've agitated
