Drive By

A tear is a delicious thing.

By Alex FalconerPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

A tear is a delicious thing.

Salty, singular.

Dramatic all on its own.

It’s like checking into a hotel for one night.

Dipping your toe into the pond.

A drive-by “hello.”

The well is deep, but we won’t go there today.

We’ll skate on the surface.

It’s enough for now.
