Cork Screw

By Kat Myrman

Cork Screw

he called her ‘honey’
after he’d had too much wine
it made her skin crawl
dry with a tinge bittersweet
he never said it sober

  We must have crossed a few intersections you and I in our parallel universes. ❤️

    Oh, yes. I recognized your soul immediately. I have that connection with quite a few people. They recognize me too. ❤

      Oh, yeah! Are you on Facebook? My friend and I have a group called the Truth Seekers you might enjoy. I found your page but not your profile. Somewhere to blow off political steam. 😀
