Virus
You’ve moved in like a mistress,
unwanted houseguest, paramour
putting a marriage into distress.
More than anyone bargained for,
freeloading on the betrothed,
stealing their embrace. Wait.
Breath you take away, know
that a debt will accumulate––
needing someone to survive––
needing someone to survive––
opportune partner won’t last
forever––you’ll need to revive.
forever––you’ll need to revive.
Soon desperate for a recast
and there’s a limited supply.
It’s ill-fated––your modus operandi.
