I treasure
The bits of you
Left under my nails
After I scrached your back
And this leaves me feeling
Demented
What have you become of me?
Untamed, desperate
All the clinging attempts I've
made at you
Are vunerable only to be
Promptly, so precisley
So politely, so cleanly
Deleted.
If I could I would
I would burn you all away
With shakes of a bottle
And a scrape of my lighter
From my head and dreams
In passion and fury and finale
Since when was I such an arsonist?
I have become of such decomposure
That I slither
I'm legless
On the grounds of my own inside
I've been truly dismantled
By a phantom whirlwind
-the apple of my eye-
Which quite literally
Took my legs
I'm a horrible warning
An example for all to see
Hanging from my wrists on the washing line
But I fear, I shan't dry
I think, quite rightly
That potatos will grow on trees
Before you give me back my legs again
Isn't it?
The pigs are like clouds in my sky,
As I said, I'm legless
I've already surcumed to so many forevers
Forevers are all I've ever managed to be.
