heavy machinery

heavy machinery

 

 

 

crush my expression

with your bulldozer words,

there will be a complete flattening of ego

 

the remnants of the written building

containing my heart

will be obliterated

 

your deconstruction of me,

complete

and my blueprint

for new lodging

 

will lie on an otherwise deserted desk

gathering delicious dust

as you dine on what's left of me.

This is like watching a stunning older brick school... Somehow they are always junior highs... That get torn down in a neighbor.
I think we all need to protest.

Consumed and devoured, left nothing to spare. Your words echo what many feel, locked away in the silence of their aching hearts. Strong stuff my friend, really like this sort of poetry.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you for your kind words, Keegan.

Whew, this is a totally different way of expressing how one feels in a failing relationship. You expressed this differently but I really like this write. Valentine

There are people in this world whose goal it is to undermine others for their own ego building. They are either oblivious, or enjoy it -- either way, their words are not worth a person's time and energy.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

so true, KL..so true.

thank you for your words...
