Perversity in the Extreme

Perversity in the Extreme

A Poem by COLLYMORE
"

The worst kind of betrayal is by those one trusted because that's the specific impression they'd always given throughout that relationship.

"

By Stanley Collymore

 

To sit and speak openly about the kind of

meaningful relationship you’d like

to have with someone who says

they love you then carefully

listens as you make them

privy to the secrets of

your private

past,

only to find that having embarked voluntarily

on a serious relationship with each other

you’re subsequently and deliberately

betrayed by their yen for affairs

and, what’s more, infected

with HIV �" isn’t just a

personal tragedy

but a symptom

too of a sick

society!
