what is this on the couch what is this 
kind of stain like coffee like really what could this be maybe the 
curry you sat on a bowl in your lap or maybe the
beer you spilled when you missed your mouth or 
later, when it came back after drinking so much 
you were drowning, almost drowning, always drowning, 
but then you think, you know, you were the one who 
wanted to drown
