MY CHIPPED LOVER

By: JB Murray © nov 2009

 

 

Its nights like this that bring her back to me

The bite in the air

The crispness of the wind

Like the words she would use

Sawing through bone

A guttural regurgitation

 

Its nights like this that bring her back to me

Fresh snow on the ground

Before original sin

It was so good once, wasn’t it?

I remember sometimes

In sweet shallow trepidation

 

Its nights like this that bring her back to me

The silence and the screams

A whispering apparition

If she could have only been so kind

But I pushed her through the machine

With such rampant aggravation

 

Its nights like this that bring her back to me

In semi-sweet pieces

My chipped lover…

Author's Note

Chip away, JB ...Good overall poetry
I especially like the 1st & 3rd verse
killer ending... Great title too.
thanks for sharing.

Very well written- I really like this- + nice rythmn to it. Plus the 'realisation' of what its all about (or what I think? its all about) caused a macabre chuckle. I like this. Good satire.
