=The Apsergers Sonnets=

15.
“No” is the strongest stimulation to “yes”
--I. K. Bonset

When I wake up I've got my daddy's cock
in my mouth. I don't remember what
got me here or why. I'm in Pennsylvania.
His fists slam the table. The cutlery
hums. The parakeet cocks his head
listening to the fault lines under the linoleum.
I feel like a jigsaw puzzle. The whole
kitchen floor might unconditionally surrender. 
I pencil in my eyes and mouth. The lipstick
is all my fault. The man instructed me 
with great gentleness to spread my cheeks
and show him my pink rosebud. The peas 
shuddered in the cream. His gray 
erect thumb. The fork frozen like that forever.
