Porta-John at Assateague
In the Porta-John at the national park,
the sign reads
sometimes the best relationship
is a long-distance relationship.
They’re talking wildlife.
I am thinking two-legged
stray males.
You should stay about a bus
length from wild horses.
Three bus lengths for seals.
What about a lying cheat
who steals your heart, gallops off
and leaves you in the dirt? I say
At least sixty bus lengths.
I write my sentiment on the wall
next to the toilet paper.
That little shit.
