megwritesDay 25: Write a poem that includes all of the following words: pistachio, ink, pebble, weather, varnish.
The summer I met my stepfather I:
was just turned twenty
ate every pistachio in the house out of the
huge bags he bought from the commissary
like a foraging bear
became a pebble in everyone's shoe that
spilled ink and called it a life aspiration
was a slow hurricane that stripped the very varnish
off the furniture, by laying around, destroying everything
was a hell of a thing to weather
would be a bridesmaid in just two years
