S cubed (to the power of 3)

Stratagem

a stratagem or trick
breaks your back
a salty kiss from a seal
makes you fat.
Don't you know never to
open small boxes labelled
'BOOM'?

Some Juice

My whole neighborhood's under a flood
because I required some juice
to surf upon.

Scrub

Food stain on the carpet.
"Clean it" the scumbag says,
"I dont care how - scrub"

She counts a rhythm
back and forth until
her pretty nails are raw.

"Scrub" he says
pouring beer into the carpet.
