Hanging by a vine
No longer out of line
For hanging by a noose
They’ll write it off as a truce
That you’ve given up and died
Oh how sadly you denied
The thought that you refused
The fact you were amused
A voice outside their head
Better gone instead
No time to negotiate
Never once up for debate
Someone they cannot protect
Someone they can now neglect

Reform
Conform
****
If only for the thrill
Delude
Elude
Deceive
The truth they can’t conceive
Fell
Unwell
Joke
But they love to see them choke
He

I’ve
Why you left me to survive
Pen
Then
Nein
Now only six remain

We’ll end this entry here,
my eager readers.
Soon my secret will come to light.
Maybe in the next entry.
Or maybe not.
So you may finally judge me
a judgment
I don’t care for,
but would still like to have.
Till we meet again,
I remain-

Anyway,
let’s talk about that scumbag.
He went off the cliff.
After drinking our liquor room dry,
carving “tattoos” into my skin,
and leaving me
with a bruised eye.
He went out laughing—
and found himself
at the edge of a cliff,
with me
pulled along
by my hair.
I won’t tell you
what led to what.
But at the end of it,
he was at the bottom.
And I was “frantically”
running home
to call an ambulance,
praying quietly
for vultures to arrive
before help did.
Questions were asked.
Oh well.

If you’re reading this,
you’re probably expecting
a neat little description of the author.
Sorry to disappoint you,
you won’t get one.
What you will get
are the questions that haunt me,
the answers I avoid,
and the explanations
I’ve rehearsed a thousand times
in my head.
Should I begin with the secret
I’ve been hiding—
the one I’m desperate
and terrified to reveal?
You might be lucky
and uncover it.
Either way,
I wish you the best of luck.
Some of you may call me cruel,
unfeeling.
But in the kind of world I’ve lived in,
it’s better that way.
Maybe that’s why
I couldn’t cry
when my brother died.
I could have saved him.
But why would I?
It’s not like
he would have done the same for me.
