Poem
chaos seeks an impression this paved means to extend leading to the latest of bitter ends the intent of happenstance suits my pen down to the motives compromise strives for a process the page in my view staring back and still labeled new determination is the method for the road less traveled turn on the next block you'll see the sign posted “ no trespassing” the page turns menacing absent any verb to interfere nothing at all and everything you hear desire so vague it breeds unsure not a single phrase will accompany this fear the resemblance to emotional blackmail drowning ex husbands in waters deep and still running a risk as they dare to tell the truth in a crickets yell from under the stair a towering blank page cast a shadow flare this is an insult I am sure driven by belief, I am at peace images from a wedding suite woke me screaming to be free from the mystique disturbed left me frantic looking for an Axe in the place I keep ex-husbands blending with daydreams and aspirations a torment fueled in basic vengeance an unexpected reminisce hit like a flood that familiar twang is just no good ex husband number four loves his ballad no song can penetrate this hatred in retrospect I was thinking how number hubby one proposed vaguely reminded of ex husband number three gone after stating he didn't like AC/DC the first look is the test followed with the sideway glance the invitation to dance the melody slipping right by my defense moving in a rhythm intense a simple beat begins to unwind a slow unnoticed will that is mine the shock of ex number two the leading man to a chorus in blue harmonizing all those absolute regrets the need to speed around an old rendezvous ex-number five racing straight into question for two “ would we make the same mistake, if we knew” torn in a struggle to open the front door as if one or all of them standing there minus years of despair looking for one last truth or dare the true life story of love with five angles portrait of romance disaster’s our weddings each very unique now reality keeps me mean unless there is a time machine perched on my front stair there are no last chances here this is where love's been traded for disdain it came with a lock and chain there are no visible paths leading back to these angry remains there is nothing here resembling I care the upkeep fell from the windows ledge a place of sitting for sleepless again staring into the night sky the brightest star caught my eyes twisting, turning a great light shining in and out of sight spinning silver and fading gray soring from the heavens to die no remorse, not a single cry the smallest things hidden inside that is where I reside and just like that I was in the wake a page no longer blank in the new day about using numbers for ex husbands instead of their names written while senseless or insane the place in between half asleep and a dream the page content no longer paralyzed last seen flying for the sunrise Terry D’Arcy-Ryan
