Hush, Piggy

Start with the carbs.

Soft mush

create a plush

bed, welcoming hush

to coat the words that want to rush

from your mouth in lush

abandon, instead crush

them between your teeth shhhhhush

the urge, swallow the gush

Don't say it.

Chew on the barbs.

Choke down the chatter

Your thoughts don't matter

You're fat, growing fatter

Please, girl, don't flatter

yourself , your anger can splatter

the bowl s-o-f-t-l-y, no clatter

flush it away, rinse the bitter bile batter

Just don't say it.

When you open your lips

fill your mouth with the scripts

of the wise and the chips

of denial, lest the truth slips,

escapes winging outward and strips

away doubt, shining light to eclipse

the route you're taking through trips

into dreams of what were wishes, grips

reality too hard, caution to the wind rips-

You're angry. Don't dare say it.
