Sep 2023
Choking
And gasping for air,
It is a polluted wasteland.
The way you unbutton that ghastly shirt
and sigh along your neck tie
Good sir, Do you want to step out for some air?
Cats and Dogs are dead everywhere
I push and pull
You pull and push
You had me inside a 5x5 cage,
Honey,
I wanted to die of old age;
I tied the tie in a loop
and forced fed you a month-old soup
You choked, I gasped
I developed a rash
Your face became blue
I love you too
And yet, when I cut your tie
There were tears in your eyes,
A story about Wanton boys and flies;
You broke my cage and let me free
But kept in you
A part of me.
