Tension.

Expanding the heart of the weary soul,
Molding a nutritious meal to seal the deal.

A single solemn spoken word,
Delivered from the tip of the tongue,
Gliding across at a brisk pace,
"No."

And so it begins.
A simple word with two letters creates a delicious dessert that only Karma undresses with her eyes and slowly takes in all of the credentials: the scent, the physical attributes, and everything in between.

As the two stare at me with pizza in hand, masking their scent with the grease that drips,

I sit and wait,
For the growling of my stomach to set off Karma's alarm clock,
Disturbing her piece and quiet.

And as she starts a small strut down the stairs,
Her soul hungers for revenge.
