Puebla Pathos

(her/she/they)

critics would say that

I just picked her up,

honestly, I still wonder

myself why I did, it’s

a fractious relationship

flowing mostly one way,

I give her the benefit of

my ever curious doubt,

due to her sculptured

body and deep brown

bronzed and shiny skin,

mostly it’s confessional

I can tell her anything

were she a nun, she

surely be a silent order,

I’m not a religious man

but belief is good,

isn’t it?
