My wounds are healthy sprouts for sale.................. (Revel in your curse)
I am not a nun
I have exploited all my lovers
I have fed food to the demons
Every time I found a lacerating sentence
thrown at me like bullets from the lips
I have imprinted it naked on the papers
For grieving, mourning and stripping off
And ran wild with it
like a morning newspaper hawker
I am more whorish but
I have turned them into a whore
No less
I follow my trance ritual quite diligently
Until there is zero difference left
Between I, me, him, theirs
I have healed that way
And you must too
Wait till their empty kisses
And words of warmth
dissolve into nothingness
Wait till you
Wait no more.
This longing has to stop
You have to stop narrowing down
Yourself and the bed whose sheets
Smell of no one but tears
They are yours, yours alone
You gift them to the world
And watch it bloom
Like you never bloomed.
