Month: March 2019

It seems
You never know
When to stop

Don’t say
I didn’t
Give you
Anything

We cannot be
Ourselves
When together
Because we’ve
Taught ourselves
To be someone else
When apart

I say I have
No need–
That such things
Are not for me
Then why am I
Mindful of those
Who also don’t
Wear one?

You tell me
You’re ready
To settle down
But as soon as
You land
You’re leaving me
Again
You are such
A tease

Whistle blown
Presence known
The factory train
Pulls its load home
And I have a front seat
To the show

I need you
To ward off
Vampires gnawing
On my lonely heart

I need you
To keep
The vulpine
Loneliness away

You like to
Dress in costume
But I have
No treats to give

No user license
Necessary
To use your ideas
To further my agenda
But if everybody
Has you
What kind of
Relationship
Is this?
Who really
Is using who?
