If you find yourself in the shower
naked in the frothy mist, peering
vaguely through the worn plastic curtain,
you are not king of the moment,
especially with a stolen towel.
Raise neither your voice nor
curl your toes in the suds,
instead scrub remarks from your lips and
beg her for forgiveness or
she’ll leave you to your demise.
