I Have a Stick In My Eye

I have a stick in my eye. It looks like a puppet's Whos been caught in a lie. The whole of my world Easily sees The strangling hold This stick has on me. It burns and it stings Never waivers its fire And it catches and snags On any might desire. This stick in my eye Is so demanding of me insisting my focus An intolerable degree. All thought and perception Are owned by this minion As is my "self" Kept from release Too preoccupied and pinioned. Months had to fester And now red with anger Time heals this not For infection does linger. I would like there to be a stick in your eye, My rugpulling playmate, With heart gone awry. You were there when it happened, 'Twas about your own fable And though I love you still Of this life I'm not able. But the lil' one of mine, With a star in his eye Keeps me from leaving With his light in my sky.
