2 + 2
and
5 x 5
equal four.
Grandmother’s perfect pig-tailed angel,
seeking salvation in dry-cleaned dresses...
Such a good little girl...
Slipping under satin sheets
while childhood-tainted innocence falls to the ground
Then shatters.
Never
disobey daddy
or a man with a crooked smile.
Rose-colored cheeks and open legs
head buried in a sea of pillows...
Naivety has a price.
It will take years...
Of pills, razor blades, and two cent therapy to fix attempt
to stitch this well-formed suicide. |
