allow me to introduce my friend Onus.
yesterday he was titled "word of the week"
and he refuses to leave my sight.
Onus's only purpose is to live on my shoulders,
that parasite!
he finds delight in destroying my bubbles with his trailing fingers.
the bubbles i've made after hours of repetition.
blow in, blow out. blow out. exhale. exhale... out
Onus's favorite time of day is
when he sees me and my heavy pair of eyes
Onus likes to scream into my ears
though he can only reach the volume of a whisper,
his silent shriek ebbs endlessly, resonating and reclining on my eardrums
oh Onus that parasite!
