Poem
Finally after twenty two plus years of marriage, a husband (namely yours truly - hitherto known as Matthew Scott Harris) exhibits glint of care and concern toward his significant other, which wife bemoaned absent expressions of love particularly before the honeymoon even occurred. I readily admit shying away from emotional intimacy, especially toward the gal whose pledge I trothed July twenty fifth nineteen ninety six, (fifteen days hence) yet even formative years (mine) scant overtures displayed toward me father, mother, plus older and younger sister (neither non twisted). A strong suspicion predominates neurological, psychological, and social perturbations commingled while said christened goodfella developed in utero, whereat genetic quarks sparked, manifested, and engendered unforeseen grievous hardship severely, inexplicably, and figuratively dislocated, truncated, and uprooted his promising, (albeit short lived) blissful boyhood, which happy go lucky preschool years abruptly analogously came to crashing halt soon after setting foot into first grade. Impossible mission to tease out telltale explanation(s) only thru courtesy 20/20 hindsight can hypothesis be formulated regarding congenital chromosomal cellular discrepancy birthing what appeared a healthy baby though prone to wailing without rhyme nor reason, especially if held by any person except mother. At a tender age behavioral blitzkrieg rent asunder tenuous connections shattering nascent aggregation to allow, enable, and provide healthy interpersonal development unbeknownst what molecular processes kickstarted, pronounced, triggered... wayward son to recoil against humanity (think how like magnetic poles repel each other). Most all mein kampf scant communication brokered never establishing linkedin bonds, nor fostering emotional intimacy despite witnessing overt caring among parents who begat me or siblings, who exuded natural propensity to comfort each other. Something so primal as to elicit heartfelt sympathy I lacked which aloofness generated offensiveness essentially buttressed (with flying colors) hermetically sealed existence (mine) nsync livingsocial within alien nation.
