Guilt, Mando Gonzalvez

Guilt

Mando Gonzalves ‘22 You are shame. You are shame because you carry around that balloon. Oh, that damn balloon. Filled -almost to burst- with that warm, disgusting air. You could open it. You could blow the whole thing. But instead you taunt me with it and keep on a plastic face, like it’s not even there. Please, stop holding that balloon! I’ve had enough! I’ve learned my lesson! Let it out or put it away.
