moment no. 11

. . . more of that stuff they call love - the thing they say is free . . . am i supposed to ask for it still?

perhaps i'm not ready yet to offer up my pride as tender - i'd rather have you up on the auction block, going for pennies and a hayride . . .

nothing sweet to be found in this bitter, nothing sweet to be sought either - the sheer indulgence in the emotions i've allowed myself to fold into . . . to succumb

scum

minus the 's' steers clear of me nonetheless

. . .

what a contraption to be enveloped in the conviction of righteousness . . . pure tomfoolery, fool-hardily expressed and indulged . . .

throw the goddamn baby out with the bathwater already.
