She Deserves Respect

momma is tired of these kids
never clean 
just do what they wish
that’s why I gave them scarlet necklaces
yes baby
adulterer is already home hehe
not going through his dumb phone 
garnet slip with a heartbreak locket choker instead
so deep I chop off his head
dance and twirl in his ribboning ruby mist 
lachrymose
xenotransplantation limbs planted
my severed garden
petals fly each time they bud and sprout back out
chop them down like weeds 
next time you should stop and think
gaze into your mother or wife’s eyes asking
is she capable
find out
I would bet your life she is
