Lies
She always said
She would never
Tire of his poetry
Nor for that matter
Ever hurt him ..
But she lied on both
Those counts
Yes, so she did ..
The fool, he never
Seemed to learn
Yet I hear
That he still writes
For her
Every now and then …

I'm off to meet her. Will it be too much for me?! lol.
again, ever-so subtly: brilliant! my friend..
I hate comparing your works
with those of famous Poet's, like Bukowski
but your effort today hit so close to surpassing
one of my favourites from his rather - divisive, cannon
I feel the need to quote his version on this same theme
(forgive my self-indulgent rudeness, in my own twisted way
I mean well, or at least that's what I've convinced myself... lol)
from 'To the w**** who took my poetry':
'next time take my left arm or a fifty
but not my poems:
I'm not Shakespeare
but sometime simply
there won't be any more, abstract or otherwise;
there'll always be money and w***** and drunkards
down to the last bomb,
but as God said,
crossing his legs,
I see where I have made plenty of poets
but not so very much
poetry.'
