de//fragment this mess
By verablue
(so it's going to be one of those weeks, is it?)
This is bound to be a mess…
Fragments of a
bombshell romance
Detonate.
It’s that
hot summer edge
When nightfall twists between my legs
Just
like black hail on the horizon
I never asked much
But I’m at a loss for words.
Even my usual poison of sex dressed
as innocence
Seems tattered and worn at the edges
So
I beg for silence
One last goodnight kiss
And it’s just a metaphorical intake
Like blades of blue grass
Sharp glass
Staying over for heartbreak
And it’s not really fun without a little half-hearted violence
Secrets hidden in layers of filth
Used condoms strewn from wall
to limb
Shadows on the wall
Broken
And so abused
Like killing control behind closed shutters
Fictional
defense.
We’re being force fed defiance
And rancid meat on
rusting spoons.
You never asked much.
And I won’t sugar coat it for you
The future’s still trapped
behind your eyes
The mirror’s intact
Shattered with secrets
Torn and bruised
This is…
This is just some child’s nightmare
Some girl’s poison
Some man’s fantasy.
This is just some criminal’s
disease.
Just some criminal….
It’s
livid like serial defense
Cold blue
Reliving the program
This is bound to be a mess…
Forced through 6 years of
repressed memories
This is scraping through my head like a
reoccurring dream…
This is just some criminal’s
disease.

"Black hail" - great visualization. I liked parts of this one, but as a whole, something about it seemed slapdash.

you honesty never lacks conviction or integrity. even in the ambiguity of metaphores, you seem to present subjects delicate as rose petels in a steele grip. i wrote once -had gernade supernove-, it perfectly describes you.
