zumdee zum

by e. h. - Libra

he says
your soap
smells like dirt

as i walk 
into the bathroom
to find him
sitting on
the edge of the 
tub

as if despair
is bourne
in the scent
of one's
own skin

patchouli
leaves scatter
as the morning
rays filter
through
the window

what would you
like me to do?
i ask

nothing.
he says
as his beard
leaves
droppings
in my sink
