The Kitchen is Massive

Ted's flaccid penis rested against his pants
in the computer chair. He fell asleep

renewing $34.99 month subscription to BetterPorn.
Roccelle and Ted don't sleep in the same bed.

Roccelle counts.
Ted says the T.V. is comforting.

Roccelle wants to paint a room red,
wants to throw glass against the wall,

watch it turn into something else,
to rest on the floor in piles. 

Make breakfast first, she thinks.
And tip-toes around as to not wake him.

The kitchen is massive.The newly installed island
in the center has bananas hunging on a stand.

It looks beatiful from afar.
Can't see the knats from there.

Last month Ted ripped the top corner of a box
so she could peer inside,

Solid marble this one, he had said
knocking on the cardboard.
