Everything happens

to me, nonetheless I am --


the protagonist.
Novel "Midnight's Children" (1981, Salman Rushdie), chapter 2-9 "The Kolynos Kid"

Collection "Low gear"

Love with you was different,
but you still played me.
Like every person you claimed not to be.
Bea Rae Mar 18
I've had enough loss

In this life and the next life

That has yet to come
Jeremy Betts Mar 17
Inside this inconspicuous figure
Is a heart and mind that conspire together
To trigger my rage heavy splendor
That works out for me never
Too clueless to share how but somehow aware
Somewhere in there is fear
Even if just a sliver
So buyer beware
Locate the snare,
It's always there
A danger that's present but not clear
I sense it when giving and losing control,
Compassion and anger
I'm uncomfortable but familiar
With those two in particular

Why did I ever

Think you would respect my no

When I said it

I have been butchered

By your words your actions and

By your *****
Bea Rae Mar 10
Empty promises

Hang on the line next to

Your ***** laundry
Bea Rae Mar 5
Just because you did

Not notice does not mean

I handled it well
