staining flesh

i'm tired. bed is overdue. but today was a full day. full like a bag of ripe cherries splitting the seams of a plastic bag.
crushed cherries at the bottom seeped through cracks and stained flesh.
promises made and promises kept.
a good day
i'm trying to tell myself.
it's true, i say back,
good, but full.


but now i'm not sure how i'll get to sleep.
