Phantom of the Page
by Ivan Jenson
you have destroyed
my relationships
and deconstructed
my confidence
while killing
any kind of
kindness I might
have contained
and left
all like-ability
on the floor
to decompose
you have a way
of alienating
anyone who
might have
helped
in healing
this
free floating
anxiety
that circles
around us
like bad ballet
you are a
cruel jester
an unjust
insensitive
soul slasher
a merciless
mood killer
but a damn
good
