Ode to Stress Liquid

By Rachelle King

Belly full of pine needles
linings crumble and peal
under pressures of acidic traitor

Caregiver attempts peace treaty
with unruly savagery:
Chalky residue detached to squabble
assaulting innocent taste buds
while liberation tunneled to revolt
preaching milky,
blushing relief
to digestive protests.
