Buffalo sauce

I sip water to wash away

The taste of Buffalo sauce in my mouth

I thought I liked it, but I don’t

Maybe, it is better to eat grilled tenders plain

Than contaminate my breath with

Chemicals mixed with food coloring

Lately, everything takes like metal

What that means I don’t know

Maybe, I’m sick, maybe, I will die

…well, everyone dies

So maybe, I will die sooner rather than later

But I have plans and don’t feel like dying soon

Maybe, I will go for a walk or take a nap,

Get up in the middle of the night

And try to find something to eat

Or maybe, I won’t
