I decline

today i went wondering
and found
i had locked myself out
rusted chains barring
entrance
leaving me stranded
in supposed to bes
keyless and naked
survivor
warrior
supporter
when i want
nothing more
than to kick
in your teeth
sling hot glue and glitter
in rabid paint swaths
of fuck you
in the faces of your
warm fuzzy horseshit
and pat on the back
good job
rabbits

    at the risk of sounding warm and fuzzy...i really LOVE this...(runs and hides)

    and oddly...i think i get it. "leaving me stranded in supposed to bes" - i DEFINITELY get that(she says from her hiding place)

    You combine sadness and anger in such a true way. I'd hate to be someone who disappoints you (DUCK! Here comes the flying hot glue!)

    Raw. As you are.

    p.s. SO tempted to say "Good job" but I could see your stare all the way across the statelines. ;-)
