To my housemates: NEVER, EVER EAT THE PLUMS WHICH I WAS SAVING IN THE ICEBOX FOR BREAKFAST OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. I BET THEY WERE SO SWEET AND SO COLD. AND DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH MY WHEELBARROW.

[Janel Comeau 🍁 @VeryBadLlama]

once upon a midnight dreary
while I wandered, weak and weary
over to a quaint and curious icebox door
when I spotted what I had been craving
the plums that you were probably saving
for your breakfast, I am sure
forgive me please, I do implore
I ate those plums and nothing more

Antibiotics be like

I have killed
the bacteria
that were
in your gut

and which
you were probably
relying on
for balance.

Forgive me
they were thriving
their flags raised
but I was sent.

I left you
sterile and aching.
Drink your yogurt.
I’m sorry.
