four haiku

**

Chorizo


Munching soft taco,
he pushed her parsley aside

and kept on eating—

**

Too Drunk to Fuck


and fast asleep, his
cock ring was the only thing

that stood between us.

**

Romance


Why in the fuck don’t
you write me when I know you

still want to fuck me?

**

To Be Honest With You


is an utterance
that cancels itself out soon

as it gets spoken—
