Futility
Futility
open your eyes
open them
I demand it
words shot
across sacred boundaries
aim for the heart,
the living zone
to take it down,
you down
into my ache
tears
useless
coruscating
acidangry drops
squeezed out
between fired lashes
hot, burning
across cheeks
create deep channels
of frustration, pain.
