The Stain


             Yes, I am a stain.
                                                But I fade away!
Untangle me from your hair, wash me off your face, spit me out of your mouth, brush me off your pillow,
                                          and throw me into the sea.

                                           It’s easy, soon you’ll forget,
                                                      And I’ll sink!
                                              
                                             I’m
                                                    Good
                                                                
                                                               At 
                                       
                                                                           Sinking.
