[Guest guest]

cutthroat you pirate and I the

swashbuckling heroine

ranting and raving mad

hysteria and I the little

pill in the bottle

lover, whore, wife, sister, daughter, mother,

it is I

you cast into the night or sliced into

meager porportions of your love,

desire

capabilities and culpabilities

jackknifed on the broader road

of nobility, a Knights game

pawns on a chessboard,

black and white pieces

of humpty dumpty

fallen

who will never rise again

the same sentiment as the way

of I sitting in a chair,

a wallflower

who receded unseen into

the background
