Bible College Memory #3 by Lila Robinett

By Lila Robinett
Expelling fractured pencils
and dried ink, I found a bottle
of nail polish in the underbelly
of a bag from college. I recall
his fake leather couch
kneaded against my bare ass
and the next morning
my fingers folder in prayer,
nails painted Wild Nude.
