Pros and Cons
When the boys from fifth period
American history whispered ice
princess as if I couldn’t hear
and you cracked your one-sided
smile—like pouring them a glass
of I know something you don’t—
I wanted to take my pencil
and put it through your laughing eye
until it popped that festering portion
of the brain that made you think
you knew anything at all.
But what I really did
was take the cherry chapstick
sitting on your desk, and slow
as day-old honey ran
it along my parted lips
until they were wet and red
and if the boys bit their cheeks
and called me whore, that was okay,
because when I dropped the chapstick
next to your clenched fists, you realized
the only private thing you knew
was what you’d never know.
