Image for the poem despair is a lady

despair is a lady

   
my poetry is hidden  
in a room full of long shadows  
cast at five  
   
it resides in the dust motes  
that rain down within  
the only ray of sun that shines  
inside a seedy motel room  
   
a place of despair  
I call it home  
it reeks of failure  
never ending porn plays  
on the television    
this is the last stop  
for all the souls that wander  

lascivious sex with a stranger  
while I write my exit  
out in my head  
   
I lose myself  
for a moment  
in the broken down lothario    
I picked up at the bar  
a desperate attempt at dodging  
loneliness my constant caller  
   
there are no happy endings  
here at the dead end motel  
just cum & sweat  
as tears of regret    
fail to fall    
   
& emptiness leaves  
its final calling card
