By Julian Matthews

I am at your feet
Hidden beneath
You let out a guttural sound
Clear your throat
Then lean below
Pull me to your side
And unload your entire oral content
from your mouth into mine
And I catch it
in all its congealed glory
I, spittoon
Come do me

First published in Atunis Galaxy Poetry, founder Agron Shele
