Rock Bottom

Rock Bottom Artwork by DALLĀ·E
I am at the bottom  
of this bottle but  
love is nowhere  
to be found. 
The rocks  
spiral 
in the glass,  
illuminated 
by morning sun 
shade on me 
fool me twice 
I pour myself in 
dissolve my flesh  
saturated sticky syrupy 
ooze into the hard place  
swirl round the rock  
bottom.
