this won't last long

she points out

that

i have spinach between my

teeth,

then

tells me that my shirt

is misbuttoned,

and that there's toilet

paper

stuck to the bottom

of my shoe.

she points at my fingernails

and asks me

if i'm still biting

them,

and that there's

paint or some kind of goo

stuck

there.

this won't last long.
