Now, Spit!A Poem by Aron SmithI'm having a truth pulled out.
It's been causing me discomfort, and they say it has to go. I protest, saying I don't mind, and it doesn't hurt that much. (In truth, I quite like the pain. It let's me know I'm still feeling.) Yet, they insist, and though I am numbed I still feel it all. Twist, Yank, a little blood, and it's all over. Yet, I am still bothered by the loss, so it is replaced by a false truth. It doesn't sit right, and I will not trust it. It looks like the truth, and feels like the truth, but I doubt it will stand up to the pressure, I put on my old truth. I miss my old truth, but they cannot put it back. So I move on, not wanting to cause a fuss, with my plastic truth. © 2009 Aron Smith |
