Maria A. Arana

Addiction


it starts with one word

leads to two kisses

 

travel three doorsteps

under covers

 

wrapped tightly

they undress

 

before too long

i devour each

 

and beg for more

chocolate

 

 

The Internet

 

Too much of a good thing

Too much of you

 

I can’t stand you

But you won’t go away

 

You only stay

And make this your home

 

Too much information

Too much of you

 

I can’t think

Without you

 

You make the decisions

I’ll just travel down

 

Scroll and click

Scroll and click

 



After Work


drinking hot chocolate

its mint aroma bubbles rise up my nose

 

marshmallows float near the rim

of my candy-caned cup

 

pulling back the throw

looking out the frosty window

 

relaxing evening

to the beat of my hum
