A Suggestion

The way the girl stares
into her reflection
in the window, and the way she lingers
her tongue on the plastic
spoon, thinking about herself
lingering there,
suggests something about endlessness,
that maybe purgatory is looking
at yourself trying to get the last,
smallest taste of the sweetest thing.
