She seemed sometimes like a mountain
Loud in sound but sudden jagged edges
Unanticipated anger bursts mixed with control
Desperate attempts to not be alone
I have to back away from that
It has become painful to listen
So it is
She will find someone else
Anyone else
To listen to her

the past is just that
can be helpful to make changes
but we can't live there anymore
listening is an art

Yeah it is-
But is like an exhaust pipe sputtering in my direction
Coughing on the stuff she spews
Physically hurts to listen to her
And married-
So much desire
Sending
Lust turns to anger
She chooses people that she has a fantasy about
Then
When it does not fly
She is a child rejected
I gave her a poem book
“ I was dedicated to my clitoris”
Men do not realize the whole “ being in heat “ thing
Much like cat backing up and meowing endlessly
I have no explanation for that behavior
I just did it

it's possible to be many different people in a lifetime
each decade brings a new character to the story, someone
we never could have conceived of even in our dreams
and it blows the mind to visit with the old versions of self
picture all of you in the same room having a conversation
imagine what a strange gathering that would be sitting at a table
with all your former selves, each with the ability to speak to the others
and someone standing up and with a loud voice and a pointing finger
proclaim, " Madam, You are an imposter !"
but some the others watching this whisper, no...that ain't true
it's her alright

and with this you have summarized the theme & plot of a story I've been working on for a while! (my tinfoil hat must have some leaks)

yeah to just listen (to ourselves, to others) sometimes it´s not easy... & if it feels too toxic, it´s better to have kleenex and some rest.
Brave poem, creativesoul!!!!!

[SPOILER ALERT]
I've conceived it as sort of a ghost story - a house haunted by the younger selves of its current occupant, who has become so used to their visitations that he no longer finds it unusual - so they converse, reminisce, share past regrets, relive his life in random flashbacks...
and it ends with.... AHHHH! AHHHH! WHAT IS IT? NO! NO! PUT THE GUN DOW.................
[/SPOILER ALERT]
