Objects, Objectivity, and Order

a 

ceramic tub

closes its curtains

beige, all the way

up

plastic curls in the corners

silver bent seven table knives

wool washed white towels

objects, all the way

from under the drain, flooding over closed

lids, all the way

into the vent, 

swirl up

in 

the echoing waves

water sloshes

blue tinged with a 

sliver of

green

tints the body

arms slosh and legs kick

floating

away

right down the drain

what if you open the curtains

and taste

bitterness in the way

plastic brushes against your 

fingertips,

ensnares the

cheap chemicals in your rose-flavored 

shampoo

gently gently

close the curtains

beige and plastic, all the way

there is only a body floating away

bloated

in the colors of all objects, objectivity, and order
