Please welcome back Nathan for tonights guest poet slot.
This submission is entitled “Demanding Fantasy and Sleep”!
A desolate geography
of division and
painful degrees
where I exist as
…nothing at all.
She never loved me…
using me to further
her paths as if
a tool of support
to strip away excess bone
…and drunken tendons
revealing raw tenuous lines
between glistening truths
and rusted halves…
Embracing propaganda
to stampede
the sinew of dreams
as if trampling love
were some unifying
natural drive within.
You took advantage
of a pure emotion
seasoning innocence seductively
with tenderly sprinkled lies.
You used me…
blinding my will to survive.
The freedom of closure
…the grand desire…
for a serene rested heart.
Awaken with sincerity
…offer a pristine gift
of a well-earned apology
softly whispered and placed
beneath the needles
of a holiday tree…
