Narrow Gate

They’re waiting outside the narrow gate seen under the door of the public women’s toilet the shoes waiting in line canvas shoes, high-heeled shoes, oxfords grey, red, coffee-colored colors from all over, pressing in, sharp as knives I’ll just have to strain my guts while the gurgling sound of water swirls and swirls in the toilet bowl Everything I can’t excrete – I’m without water, without food, without oxygen without this, without that, without you, without her – without one last supreme effort to digest what’s not me, like a snake swallowing an elephant till it balls up like a blue bowler hat Why is the hat so small, capping the skull?
