#assertion
It just makes sense to insist
to not be dismissed
by you on the silly premise
that acceptance of you requires
tolerance of intolerable disrespect.

Assertion
Clammed-up
On the relay
Second guessing
The shrunken head
Of old therapies
The clock says
It's time
To nod off
Greet the morn
With withered fist
Rationalised fury
Trying to
Replace the
Pimply face
Of ******
Angst baseless in
Content
On the tether
Of just another
Addiction in a
Succession
Of spiritual
Vices perpetuated
By the nonchalant
Visage of a world
Uncaring
In derision
From calloused hands
Caused by
Hard work
With little or no
Monetary avail
Hand to mouth
Foot in mouth
Hand on crotch
Crotch saddle sore
What's the point
Of a worn-down point
Dull but
Double-edged
Just to prove
The sword of Damocles
Is still hanging
Over the head
Of your enemies
Who pop
Their heads
Up over
The hedgerows
Like pictures
In a shooting gallery
At the carnival of
A battlefield distant
Filled with relics
Of another
Dead-end
Ill-purposed war
Of the worlds floating
On the crest of
Mine-dotted airwaves
Prompting viewers
To drown negativity
And to salvage
The positive
A broadcast from
Bipolar formats
In living colour
Double-edged
Double-standards
Double-dealing
Double-meaning
Double-minded
Double-jeopardy
Double-trouble
Double your money
Doppelganger leading
Double life
All propagated in
Double-time
Best
Double your efforts
And tune out!

Her.
reeking of cheap perfume and daddy issues
polyester black cloth elegant, purposeful in its placing
“everything is free if you run fast enough”
something was going to **** her anyway
why not let it be something of her own design?
taking a drag of her pernicious cigarette
forcing careful and cultivated opinions
if only to silence the sadist inside
she had already walked in loneliness
full of satin bows and amusement
so it might as have happened now
because everyone always loves you better when you’re dead

conflicting species
test the limits
to assert power
between themselves

One who reasserts power constantly
Shows strong signs of weakness, impotency!
Though they may deny it vigorously,
Perhaps protest a little too loudly?

I lost a good woman
You lost a good man
Not being with you
wasn’t part of the plan,
but you chose to scram
without saying a word
Choosing not to clarify
all the things you heard
So quick to assume
your friends told the truth,
but they still act as if
they’re all in their youths
High school is over
There’s so much more to life
There is no need to learn
every thing in hindsight
Honestly, I believed
we were past the pettiness
I was ready to move on
and grant your every wish
I guess I was wrong,
but it wouldn’t be the first
I just never expected
things to become worse
Do you still possess
my picture in your purse?
Our’s is in my wallet
You’d cry if you saw it
Memories of something
that was once so sweet
Now I drive around with
a vacant passenger seat
I doubt it would be
filled for a quite a while,
‘til I find that good girl
that can make me smile
