I was in the habit of destroying bedspreads -  
laying waste to their assembly -  
as though their 
ready-made presentation
.
were an elaborate game of strategy 
and my dismantling of their arrangements, 
an act of war 
upon the enemy. 
.
.
I killed headboards, 
sunk pillows,
devastated whole duvets - 

while I was not but a
red-blooded writer
who was happy to f**k 
.
.
the day away.
