the One Unobtainable

Anger, discontent

are like a house

after work

some place where you wrap yourself

in a security blanket

of irritability

 

hungry for touch

but misanthropic

can't taste lust

but for the One Unobtainable

can't help her

can't detach

only recourse, lash out

 

Anger is like a house
