woe be the victim

The stains she left
                were not in your bed
       it was the spear she left in your head
               turning you against
                         [so cruelly against]
                                   《your own blood》

            She is manipulating you,
                       Dear brother,
                            milking your sympathy
                             with
                                         [alligator tears]

There is no depth | there is no surface
            Don’t throw your life preserver
                             don’t chastise me for
                                       your own blindness

       I do not belong to her as you do
             I’ve rid myself of Medusa’s spell
           & I have never been stone
                              that’s her specialty
               inside her reptilian mind
                       Death rolls & throes
                          twisting eternally
                            make love to the image
                    she projects

              fucking Oedipus complex

You’re her casualty

Fractures

I wake before the birds sing
& before the blue glow
My body is trained to do so

This headache travels from one side of
My                                                   Brain/

Totheother and
I don’t know if I should worry _
Or if anything is worth worrying
About

[There’s so much shit
I wanna tell you now]

Like how I know it’ll never be the same
We can’t build-back together
You can’t empathize with pain
& you can’t/
_grease my palm

into forgetting you were always:

by every/any/one else’s side
                             but

mine
