WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT.

WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT.

A Poem by Terry Collett
"

A MAN AND WOMAN AND CRUEL LOVE.

"


And it's all she
has to show, all
that's left, and he
wanted so much,

and she said: no
(eventually), no
to this and that,
and it all unfolded,

and was exposed,
and he was just a
liar, and spinner of
deceit, and all he

wanted from her
was sex and sex
games, and he never
once asked her what

she wanted or liked,
it was all him, and
his exploitation, and
that time he said: can

my buddy Max stay
with us? and she said:
yes, and he too ended
up in the bed, and took

her from the rear, and
no more of this or that,
she said, and now alone
in the two-bit department,

he gone off with some
other girl, some other
God forsaken mama, and
she lies in bed in her

skimpy underwear, a
glass half filled with
gin by her bed, music
from the radio playing

some funk stuff, and
that time, she muses, he
cut up rough and beat
her up some, and her

eyes closed black and
bruised, just because that
one time she refused, and
that other time in that sex

game, she the school girl,
he the harsh teacher, then
humped her as far as he
could reach her, that's all

gone now, he's gone, some
other fool girl, taken him
on and out, she''ll soon learn,
Lilly muses, what he's all about.
