Image for the poem No Respect

No Respect

I am fundamentally  
Your  
Foundation  
The sole reason your thoughts  
Center  
A never ending torrent  
Fueling your
ego  

Yet,  
you keep me  
Always  
Right outside my comfort zone  
Never wanting me to get  
 
“To comfortable”  
 
I’m secure,  
Yet never secured  
 
I get fingered, but  
Banged  
 
Prepubescent interactions solely…  
 
Keeping me at a distance  
You know that long distance love type of thang  
 
Similes and metaphors  
Roll off your tongue  
Like sonnets  
You spin poetic webs  
Enticing me  
Delighting me  
Inviting me  
With your  
Slick forked tongue  
Devil in a blue suit  
Type shit  
 
*tsk*  
 
You be  
Peddling
Words,
Bruh
 
Saying whatever you got to say  
To keep me numb  
 
 
We Peaked and plateaued  
Yet you are still  
Reeking of that stench of

…Contempt…  
 
Always asking for me to explain  
my disdain  
You’re not comfortable facing  
My apathy  
for  your
Masculine Bullshit  
 
Flashbacks of lies  
Misunderstandings…  
 
Fuck that!!!  
 
I was mislead  
I am waiting for you to  
Cast me aside  
 
Sit me on a shelf  
 
Cause…  
 
“Good Girls”  
 
Get no respect
