she used to look at me like she hated me
...my mother's mother...
wanted to erase my existence from her reality
mom always said it was all in my head
...that I was just being too sensitive
{I got that a lot growing up...}
until one holiday when I was 15
that woman sent a box of presents
lovely wrapped packages for mom & my sister
...complete with shimmery bows & pretty labels
each of them receiving warm fluffy robes
{they even had big pockets!}
...& matching slippers for them both ...

For Safety
Love, that old snake,
comes to thaw my heart
with its honey-sweet kisses.
I light a fire to keep it away
and my heart in the freezer.

2003 .
She knows her heart beats to keep her alive. It also beats her up sometimes with its co defendant her mind. Both standing in the dock tethered to her and able to cause disorderly conduct without a mark on the outside. It can be a toxic combination when she fails to believe in herself and all her dreams and just lets everything slide back and not one iota of thought of what she could be . It’s a destructive behaviour pattern and breaks more than it mends. The broken pieces just multiply and sharpen its claws.
Her heart and mind are the mischievous sort and will cause a right song...

Kill the crush
Gotta get my emotions in check
Disengage and self reflect
It's always the same pattern
Too attached too quickly
Turned on by that sweet rejection
Fluttering emotions trapped in my skull
Truly stuck in the mantra of
"Get over it; he don't want you"
I'm trapped in this self harm loop
Listing all the reason I can't be loved
I'm addicted to that unrequited love
Crushing on people who can't return it
It's all the same... It's a safety thing
They can't hurt you if they've promised nothing
It's easier, it's easier to...

bring
yourself as

to me,
give me
the chance
to
unwrap you,
then take
it back.

the blade is unsheathed
the blade
is unsheathed,
feel it
pushing
in between
your ribs,
right to
your soul,
cutting you
deeper
with each
vicious word,
the
church
doors close.

For Hire-one seat seeking bums.
On a packed train,heaving bodies,stand face-to-face, facing the taste of breath,of each squashed up,sweet smelly bodies. On their way to slave work.
Every seat was taken.
Except,
For the one next to me.
No-one seemed to want to sit down.
At every stop,each passenger that boarded,
first looked at me,
then at the vacant seat.
Their bodies contorted,rigamortise
I began to wonder if it was me.
With my inquisitive broad nose.
(Inherited from my family.)
I delicately,With stealth like precision, ...

How busy we are in our pedestrian life
how shocked morally we behave when they

it means thinking

the rich are not different than us, but

as for us, we can do one of two things
be envious and cheap, or know the world

Smouldering embers
I Am A Tragedy.
A great Shakespearian imaginary.
Acting through a Sonnet, metamorphis style.
Like a rocket,
I elevate sporadic Lee. Lee sporadically,tragically,majestically. No matter inside, out. In plain sight.
Whilst still in school.
Bullies turned me into a mule. So I prayed to the moon, consistently, traumatically, revolutionary,reactionary, resilient who I be.
In-spite my spider-like life. My web couldn't stop the process of bullies putting me down, through their spiteful insights.
Smouldering embers,kept up the fight....

Deep wounds.
I was terrible at arithmetic and subsequently received a big fat (F) for failed!
I stumble and fall apart at the sight of numbers. Calculator always at hand.
(I hate you. Her languid body language informed me.)
It's hard for a child to grow successfully,with the hounds of hell biting at their heels.
Let go,hound informs me. For your sanity to thrive.
It doesn't hurt me anymore.
So I'll try.
But deep wounds thrive.

sadness
her hair hides
the fragile smile
as tears find
their way down
her cheeks,
dropping away
into emptiness
and confusion,
passing lost hope
and what was
once happier days.
