saving face

this face
to your face
tell me what's the consensus
on this violation of your airspace

fistrack this strong jaw
and extend the long arm of your law
between us

 

bruise me up

dear please

rearrange me

 

estrange me from myself

 

show me

the reality of my loss

in a zero-sum game

Hello, Devon and Jon )

While I'm here, I would just like to say that this is not an appeal to violence, though it might seem so--it's so unnecessary when there are so many less direct means of accomplishing the same things.

Good day to all wherever you are and Happy Birthday to my home in the States.

I think I got a bit lazy at the end and had to wrap things up a bit more neatly )

And for all this intense rhythm and image - the gain to loss ratio is precisely nothing. Wow, Rachel. This poem is kicking.
