Tropicana MAG
Your name is the capillary line
of sugar on the rim sweating
blue fizz, the truth is
orange soda is sweet like your name
splashes water onto my face
like a cold “good morning.”
It shrieks neon
strawberry essence,
like purple pressed
on nectar necks
through the peach fuzzy spectrum
of ballroom dancing to techno music.
AFTER:
Your name is a text over a gas station sandwich:
“It’s not going to work out”
