The flare of pain at the base of my spine distracts me from the sharper pain Of losing you. Each evening I numb myself with wine, It slops into the glass And makes me think of angry tears. Social butterfly, I whirl into the city Wearing my fake face, And ready for excess. I need to be gentled Away from these destructive interventions, Does someone have a cure for the cure?

Distractions
The flare of pain at the base of my spine distracts me from the sharper pain Of losing you. Each evening I numb myself with wine, It slops into the glass And makes me think of angry tears. Social butterfly, I whirl into the city Wearing my fake face, And ready for excess. I need to be gentled Away from these destructive interventions, Does someone have a cure for the cure?
