so fucking lost standing in the kitchen
i finally break down
break apart
shatter into pieces
holding my breath
breath in breath in breath in
holding in the noise
breath in breath in breath in
my heart screams as it breaks
breath in breath in breath in
my head caves in
breath in breath in breath in
my knees tremble
breath in breath in breath in
my brain gives way

but its ok.
if anyone comes in,
i can just pretend that its the onion

thieums When the weather is too dry
People get their onion stocks
Get over the plants that need water
And peel the onions close to their eyes.

unhinged grating onions for latkes; me and my brother have helped our mother cook since i can't remember and that was the one thing we always argued over.

'you do it'

'no you do it'

'NO you do it'

'no YOU do it'

(it's probably not a coincidence that my brother is now an amazing cook/chef catering parties for friends and managing kitchens)
