Grieving Demon

 Oh,

staple of stable households.

Your stuffed foam insides

are like squid-infested skies.

Every adjustment taken

is a reset on the timer

of your absolute comfort.


Oh,

couch.

When I’m not sitting on you

I turn into a grouch.

A pit of pestilence.

A beautifully tattooed flesh pouch.


And when I'm on you,

I never want to leave,

to the point where,

my demons start to grieve.
