Love Poem: Butterfly Gland

Butterfly Gland

Something is
wrong with
the butterfly
sitting below
her Adam’s
apple. 
Hormones 
destroy the
metabolism 
of her life. 


Anger-waves
cause cracks
in relationship;
epicenter is
in her neck.

Her black hairs
fall unusually. 
Anxiety spreads
before her 
vanity table.

Love dries in
depression. Their 
bed becomes a
parched garden.

Her unlicensed
words hit his 
heart. A death
rattle echoes in	
the throat of 
their family life.

A physician and
pharmacist derive
pleasure from her
butterfly gland.
