Turn away from me. Abandon everything you think you know.  I will never, and have never, and can never, offer you anything of any value or importance. I am lost, to myself and to you.

Turn away and leave me here, festering in a wilderness that I conceived and believed and embraced, willingly. Turn away and find a muse, someone who glows, and knows, and doesn't need.

Turn away. Leave. Don't grieve.
Don't try to find me. I am never coming back.
feel this needs an explanation but I don't have one.

It's just how I feel right now.
Just go away somewhere and
Bury yourself in dirt,
Think a little, of the hurt
You have caused.
The audacity you displayed in reestablishing contact
And the arrogance with which you then dropped us both
Knowing you could have us back.
You are a contemptible pile of worthless ****
And I am glad I can finally see you for what you are
I am tempted to drop a bomb into your cosy little world
But she doesn't deserve that.
She'll learn, eventually,
I won't tell her
I have more important things to do.
I am a little angry....
Blood under my nails
And in between my teeth
Hair-and-bone-and-skin.

Faecal Matter
Ground into my knuckles
*****
Coating everything.

I am tainted by things of the body;
Of your body.
I remain unclean through choice
I need you in
And on
Within.
Golden infant, left abandoned, in a world you'll never know,
Cupid found you bathed in sunlight
And he froze you in the snow.
You are sleeping, I am weeping,
Both for you, and she who fled,
She will keep her grief so secret,
You will never leave your bed.
You never touched me,
But your fingertips found lips
And entered, in dreams.
I'm going to transmigrate my psyche
into my cat.
Spend most days curled in a beanbag,
Emerging only for food, cuddles and a quick saunter round the garden.
On days like today,
I'll lay down in a shaft of sunlight
And playfight with my brother
In the tentative February glow.
I'll be well rid of human angst
And inner turmoil,
Content to acquiesce to occasional petting
Soaking up affection
Purring softly in response.
I bought my girls a donut each
To the disgust of the other mothers,
And I watched them **** the sugar from their fingers
And scoop it from their plates to rub it on their lips.
The other kids had half a donut each,
And when they'd finished, they just watched
my daughters lick and chomp and scoop and ****
A whole donut
Because life's too short
And it isn't as much fun
Without the hole.
