Untitled -- 9.8.2004

I have been revoltingly unfaithful to you

With words and with dreams

While you were away

Unfaithful with my eyes

My heart

But never my body

I held on to that medicine

That vanity and purity

The white and green

You never did want me

But you pretended anyway.

I hated you with my mouth

My arms and my legs

I hated you with the fire.

I burned your notes

One by one

Holding on until my fingers raged

You never did see

I hid it from you

By parading it in your eyes

Brightly colored floats

Bending and twisting

You never saw it

You looked so close

Squinting your eyes

You never saw it
