The Way of it




I can't fit you into my scheme of things  
 

nor you me,

now that we've finally become ourselves.
 

I turn on you, sharper than a scalpel,

spit words chiseled to wound.
 

Out from beneath the quilt of affection:

our naked selves so vicious,
 

we bruise each other with the same fervour

that once marked our love.
