Untitled 3

A Poem by Kori Ricketts

 

torn between want and need
perplexed by inhibitons
irrtated by insecurities.

starting here,
everything I do is purposeful
everything I say has meaning
everything I visualize is reality.

Love and all its exhausting pleasures
is now...
A figment.
No longer a fixation
an infatuation
a need.
but a fantasy for children to enjoy.

Fear.
Understanding the differnce.
Afraid of myself.
The titles burned into my hyde.
Unremoved.

Lesbianism.
Embrased,the theory of same sex.
Love based on genetailia.
Combined.
I fear myself.
the thought of being alone.
heterosexuality would've made me more appealing to the lesbians.
Complexity.

Starting here,
everything I do is purposeful
everything I say has meaning
everything I visualize is reality

so with purpose and meaning
I denounce love
and proclaim is as no longer apart of my reality.
