You Want to Write a Poem

That’s brave…
To take my life
And eagerly, spitefully
Put in on a page
For others to ogle
To study the ugly corners
And the littered floors
The filmy walls
Brave and bold
Like removing someone’s
Underwear, turning it inside out
Reveling in paltry stains
That aren’t yours
Will never be yours
Will not be yours
You fearlessly stand
With a golden halo
In front of Heaven’s Gates
Waving a white flag
Freshly washed
In my urine
And for that
You will easily be
The heralded hero
Bold and true
You beat this shrew
And discovered the witless charms
Of martyrdom.
