A Poem by Mira McEwan, from Ecstatic

Words That Make My Stomach Plummet

Committee Meeting.

Burden of Proof.

The Simple Truth.

Trying To Be Nice.Honestly.

I Could Have Died.

I Almost Cried.

It's Only a Cold Sore.

It's My Night.

Trust Me.
Dead Serious.

I Have Everything All Under Control.

I'm Famous For My Honesty.

I'm Simply Beside Myself.

We're On The Same Page.

Let's Not Reinvent The Wheel.

For The Time Being.

There Is That.

I'm Not Just Saying That.

I Just Couldn't Help Myself.

I Mean It.
