Freezer Burn

Freezer Burn I’m running out of room inside the freezer I swear – I did everything to please her Yet somehow I could never keep her sated Sadly, I fear, the ending had been fated We used to use the ice cubes as a teaser now she’s turned to ice no way to please her It seemed to me that she would never melt so I placed her on the bottom beneath the smelt She peers at me her cold and empty eyes gazing from behind past code French fries I often ponder just how things would be if she had felt that coldness within me John G.
