Don’t Talk to Me of …

Neville

Don’t Talk to Me of …

 

Don’t you dare talk to me of passion

to you

it’s just another dirty word that starts

with P and is so

easy to misconstrue and sounds absurd

Much like

your prayers do and your personality ..

Oh’ and the word

pharaoh too, though until quite recently

you

thought that began with F didn’t you ..

Like fucking,

friends and freedom, all start with an F ..

And don’t dare

mention trust, since that old chestnut

is now

well and truly broken, don’t you think ..

Oh’ and

for what it’s worth, let’s all steer clear

of honesty

Since you clearly have no idea at all of

what such

words are bloody worth, or mean even ..

      • dusk arising


        Wise words from you. Though late in the day, how lucky to recognise a persons true colours and keep the revolver in the drawer.

        Words are strange for some. It seems many believe love starts with a good F.

            I agree with Teddy. Often humor comes out when you are rubbed the wrong way; if you keep rubbing so will the knife.
