Parasitic bloomsA Poem by Yvonne Dare
I am a violent being
I am vicious despite best efforts I have created pain unabashedly I have kissed limp palms Still warm to the touch I have peeled soft skin Shapes and designs to be made of muscle I have created violent art Rust colored blooms settled deep within white fabric I have sipped wine from broken glass bottles Wasted flesh of which I beat till the death Broken down every corner of the mind I am a marking in each and every life A small red spot that you hope never grows I expand and expel every part of you that does not recognize me I am parasitic I am an infant screaming for your attention Gurgles and chokes of displeasure and pain Waiting for your recognition I am a deeply volatile person And despite best efforts Nothing has yet to cure me © 2024 Yvonne Dare |
