Go Ahead I Dare Ya Breakup Poetry No One Should See

And He
my dearest
maturest mate to date
has bitterly regressed
to a child irate
from man of logic
to impish state
a hexer vile
filled with hate
while I don't believe
I've changed a bit
he thinks me evil
my mother split
as saccharin 
as the Harpie race
bewitching temptress
evil face
necessity
I do suppose
for his childish fit
to so dispose


Dug out of an old journal for John Lawless' Go Ahead I Dare Ya!!! Contest

Oh my, this is one cool poem, Maureen! You possess so much verve in this wry, funny poem. He better not touch the wrong nerve. Keep on giggling at your own vitriol. Especially when you gotta let the thunder roll. You are one straight shooting sista. This poem got me smiling ear to ear. Your voice is so good to hear. Love and hugs, my dear.

Oh no, he was the most mature of those you dated? I think you and I have waded in the same gene pool looking for love and finding a bitter child. You definitely fulfilled the contest theme, Maureen. Like the short lines and the rapid-fire descriptions of this "vile" lover. Wishing you success.

Giggle ;) well heartbreak can bring out the worst in all of us. I'd say he grew up with our breakup, I "fixed him by breaking him", he was marriage material after me. Sigh. lol xomo!

Well, he did dare you and I see you answered that dare wonderfully. Don't you just hate when they revert back to that whining, crying and imaginative infant state? How dare he? :) Nicely expressed angst my friend.

...I was actually looking for an awfully embarrassing penis poem I wrote and (ugh) sent when I came across this number, probably for the best ;)

Yah, was dramatic, a literal hex display; fortunately he was the loather of poetry so no chance he'll be reading this here ;) xomo!

My gosh the diction in this piece is amazing. "maturest mate to date has bitterly regressed to a child irate from man of logic to impish state" This rhyme, to me, has so many layers to it. Good one Mo! 7
