Kerri Shying R # 43 The Carthaginians



Carthaginians

Sing salute to
a slovenly salt-slinging sister
that soft spiteful tongue
pokes out at you still

Rumen choked turgid
on past indiscretions
cheek hairs stiff bristling
 life’s bitter pill

why censor the teardrops
   shame’s a tattoo
 dying by inches
too little to do.
