the truth doesn't care
By eidos
When you told me that she tasted like fresh
cut grass
I thought you had your words mixed up.
The nonchalant
way you made mention of her lips
as if they were nothing more than
a passerby
that nodded in your direction
as if you hadn't broken
bread with the devil
already.

It's fascinating the way something short like this can have such an impact. The last line was especially perfect. Very powerful piece.
