No-one ever said it was easy
six hours between visits
and the usual suspects
are pissing their territories
on their pixelated walls
I think of every woman
that has ever hated my spit
and the men who found
weird strength in it
as if my mouth is a trophy
nobody fucking asked for
gathering dust in a cabinet
they show to old mates
knowingly after dark.
I think about words
if they ever mean anything
remembering the last time
I allowed them in
watching my heart
get smashed
against drywall
wondering if anybody
really knows anybody
when a person can be
whoever the fuck they like
clutching underskirt secrets
as tightly as those nude shots
they want no-one
and everyone
to find
and it doesn’t make any sense
why anybody
would mistake hope for a digital kiss
or why a woman watches YouTube clips
on influencer style contouring
for a profile pic only vultures
ever truly see.
Wondered if it was all about happiness
at the end of the day—
five minutes of stolen peace to quench
the world’s burning rage
how words are both blessing and bane
in their own bastardised meaning.

Look, I don't know you but if this is how you react to a compliment, I can't imagine a whole lot of joy in your life. Might be time for some self reflection.

Here’s a dollar. Buy yourself a fucking mirror and a personality.

Hello Donkey. Lets get you back to the swamp. You seem to be getting a bit irritable.

What’s that other word for donkey? ASS?
Isn’t that a word where you come from?

An incredible grasp on the English language. Im proud of you. Perhaps you can leverage that into writing something worthwhile.

Hang the fuck on, Spud. I do not spew profanities. I enunciate them clearly. Like a fucking lady.
Funny you mention spewing. Fitting word for the shite you cocked your ass over and laid on this page.

For the record, we were joking. I think Missy is an amazing writer and an amazing person.
Missy, good poem. Very relatable. 😉

Good thing (for you) I made that note. You would have had to get dealt with too. You're welcome
