#10 location poem.
In my bathtub
Under the bubbles
Practically the only place I'm allowed
To be naked
Soap on the tub's edge
Shampoo and conditioner
Just sitting there, making vain promises
Of shiny healthy hair
Happy in my skin
In my bubbly reverie
While the water cools off
And my fingers prune up.
It never lasts.

Tub
In my bathtub
Under the bubbles
Practically the only place I'm allowed
To be naked
Soap on the tub's edge
Shampoo and conditioner
Just sitting there, making vain promises
Of shiny healthy hair
Happy in my skin
In my bubbly reverie
While the water cools off
And my fingers prune up.
It never lasts.
