Cruel GirlA Poem by Malcolm J. WattI remember your name, I remember your game. I hold no hatred for the hurt, the wound has long since healed.Cruel Girl
I don't know how many times You've left me standing there With my dink in my hand After you'd run off with the nearest goat.
I don't know if you know How many of your teenage putdowns Or your exultations of your period I have patiently endured.
I don't know if you know How many times I've covered Your sorry a*s From the rightous kick it deserves
All I asked from you Was to stand with me Even for just a little while Against our common enemy.
All you offered Was subjugation, oppression And the worship of your sex So all I could do Was keep the cabin clean And commune with the universe Hoping that perhaps one day The spirit that informs me Will reach your heart. © 2012 Malcolm J. Watt |
