stomach

I don't really understand how gummy vitamins work.
How is it all in there?
How can we be sure that it is real at all?
A cup of broccoli in a fruit chew.

I do this thing.
A perceived good.
From a fear of unwellness and unknown terror
I buy supplies.

"you should date him," she says
and it feels like a choice between never and forever
a web wound tight, a comfort or a crime
should maybe

a label is a promise
that takes a sort of faith
but I've seen eyes gazing out from behind the curtain
starved and full of shit

looking for that
easy swallow
