Pt. I : Absence/Contorted Porcelain-faced bitch |
Some things occurred to me this night. |
Nothing is for or about you. |
«You are not worth immortalizing.» |
Previous immortalizations were passing |
instances of fanciful anger and snow-blind confusion. |
It is not I… |
I have not changed. |
My hand still writes, my eyes still strain and I still understand you. |
Only I now understand you are not as I once thought or hoped. |
The first exultant whore had a glutton’s wealth of lovely attributes in |
comparison to your wallowing appearance of being strong and intelligent. |
The philosopher does not exist in this letter. |
The scholar will attain nothing because you are nothing, a forced, |
reconstituted nothing, which at one time had just potential for beauty and for |
a soul. |
I digress… |
had I truly understood you in the beginning, this would not have drudged on for |
this length. |
How was it that I refered to it? |
Oh, «the other» or «the third,» as if there was ever even a first. |
Striking during failure and disappointment. |
Hair caught roaming among barbed wire, leaning through to step on unfriendly |
domestic ground. |
I can calculate more points to three but abiding a punisher’s rules prevents |
victory. |
Would it be victory? |
Even if slain, would it not be victory won? |
Some things occurred to me this night. |
Nothing is for or about you. |
«You are not worth immortalizing.» |
Previous immortalizations were passing |
instances of fanciful anger and snow-blind confusion. |
It is not I… |
I have not changed. |
My hand still writes, my eyes still strain and I still understand you. |
Burn, burn, burn, all my blessed children of Sodom, for I created you to suffer |
savage hatred." I think even if the first were eternally obtained, |
the third would remain ablaze. |
I am not rambling enough for my own entertainment, but a decision has been made. |
for no fear can match this confinement. |
