Nowhere

Nowhere

A Poem by Crowley

Cold has a taste
A leather glove forming new treatises
A firm slap, desire or disgust
Same face, same coin, spent and gone
The clean up on aisle three is a tease
A ruse, clever distraction
The forthcoming apocalypse ripening, imminent eruption
I look across the table
"You're done with me."
"Yeah."
"You keeping the dog?"
"Yeah."
If there was a victory, I didn't see it
The dull gratification, thinking only of ones self
I paid the tab and left to nowhere
Nowhere seemed the perfect destination

The end of this poem is like a punch in the gut or swallowing a boulder heavy and unmoving.

Many relationships end this way and how this situation came to be doesn’t matter. It’s the turning point and yeah nowhere to go and going nowhere. That’s how it feels emotionally and mentally
