Poem

We quarreled to bitter, burning degrees 
(you)loving me 
as a tender trespasser 
     a chew toy 
     boy 
demanding compliance 
forced feedings 
down
to sock selection 
(your)conspicuous usage of chlorine 
blistering eyes 
a woman my mother may have idolized 
(your)disciplined hemlines 
entirely circumspect 
	subtracting the abusements 
	how (your)words struck, in the rage of an enemy fire 
	and less, the undisturbed lust after hog's feet
I was heading for America 
	a better sow to plow 
        with spangly blue eyes
        and ruddy virtue brimming inside her countenance
out of the despicable cold,
The harpy's fury 
	(you)poked at my shortness
	magnified my retardations
I was a crouching slug in (your)supercilious shadows
Understanding I couldn't swim
as all the world knows   
any banal fact 
     for example, water is wet 
and a million times (your)augur's ball
pronounced death by sea 
     little legs shall not be inclined to desert the scalding Egyptian sands
was it (your)psychosis or mine ... doubts dressed as destiny?
I missed the exodus of the unsinkable ship.
The Titanic horn tolled whilst she distanced,
the mocking tintinnabulation 
of elegiac bells.
