A tease, a tease, oh how I am a tease, for I write poems of which you shall never ever read! I eke, I eke, these thoughts with blood as ink, on gasping pages drowning in the anguish that I bleed! I speak, I speak, of demons I've yet freed, solely expelled for exorcise, whose omens I must take heed! I tease, I tease, I do not aim to please, for I write poems of which you shall never ever read!

Tease
A tease, a tease, oh how I am a tease, for I write poems of which you shall never ever read! I eke, I eke, these thoughts with blood as ink, on gasping pages drowning in the anguish that I bleed! I speak, I speak, of demons I've yet freed, solely expelled for exorcise, whose omens I must take heed! I tease, I tease, I do not aim to please, for I write poems of which you shall never ever read!
Our catharsis as writers cannot always be public. I think of "The Sorrow of War," by Bao Ninh.
