Re-Issue

by -richard-j-treitner

Disfigurement to a one time pretty boy is like finding out that I'm positive all over again a tower of rubble to the chest another death sentence rolled out just in time for the new year a new contagion of scar tissue and self-doubt self-loathing and your disgust turning me away in the rain and if it hadn't been you it will eventually be a whole line of others whom no longer wish to sample this drama queen's merchandise of defilement and raw pain
