welcome back home, darling –
you look so low-carb and so sugar-free
your laughter rings so ethically sourced
your mischief – recycled and clean
don’t worry, come and see
your memories stacked in compostable packaging
do you now take your mornings decaf?
what plant milk do you take in your tea?
you keep biting your nails
I can tell that’s not real leather
have you switched to fair-trade love?
your heartbreak’s organic?
is your panic free-range?
do you ever forage for pills?
leave your shoes at the door
and your heart at your sleeve
and come to lie
                        down 
                              for a while
                                           guilt-free
