Some people say they eat their feelings.
the fog outside my window is
devouring my neighbors’ houses.

He’s swallowing the nearby forest,
nothing goes untouched.

the mailboxes and driveways,
They’re all gone.

I want him to seep through my walls and eat me alive.
but that’s selfish, and he’s the one having a bad day.
