she cried havoc when chaos spilt from my mouth like milk.
i sunk fangs in her tilted head then i bilked.
i was drunk on pangs of guilt and debunked the whole lies,
the half truths you told Matthew from time to time.
i built a silk pursue from sow's ear but she jilted the gesture
so save the lecture because i won't pester you like the jesters do
because my wounds fester when i'm next to you.
i'm not here for you rescue
when you abandoned ship
from a boon companionship
so exsiccate in the canyon which
i excavated you from.
you grew some ovaries
when you said you were over me
so don't bother overseeing me
overseas.
