Hear Me Out

Hear Me Out

A Poem by Wynter Ignatius

Forge ahead promptly to your own exhibition
Break a leg at the curtain call of your mitigation
Ying to yang not quite black to white
Break out of entrapment to embrace detention
Clarify your problems as an epidemic of the auxiliary
Your promises in the dark scatter under light of day
Ever-burning fire in your heart now but cinders
Ignited chaos now the forest between us
Dry despite the tears that I've showered forth
Tears that once scoured your eyes now ever so sweet
Warm embraces now reserved for tender ages
Pensive kisses already said ciao
Ditched the foundation for wanting of the adjacent plot
Anvil of your kin not privy my hospitality
Blissful ignorance that hybrid can't repair
Content for a Lancelot waiting in the weeds you tendered
Fruits of my labor expunged after fallow harvest
Propensity to your idolatry for me
Without affirmation by your commission of consultation
Generic words replace poetic verse
Liaison of bygone cohort of your progeny avails
Despondent heir fails to inflection aversion suitably
Oblivious to a mother's wit of the overall latitude
Reprehensible abandonment of that once held so dear
Burning a bridge you one day will demand to cross
Bearing the burden despite my martyr's title
Shadow of your firmer self repeating a song and dance
Weep not for the bed you sleep upon
I crafted it not by my paved struggle
No longer bound to your obscure humor
I exit stage left out of eternity
Retrospect in retrograde on my spent inclination
