The saleslady told me EVs were cheap, and to call her Janet

Relentless, empowering, with so many mountains to climb 
Remorseless destruction, given on those who idled around
Youthful years spent wasted on anger never worth its time
Pursued until driven...

...She had been stalked
Dark thoughts draped in silence
Ranting
Gnawing
Suckling
At the breast of doubt
Whimpering
In the shadowed suffering
Of idled indecision
Held hostage
By the blank page

allowed me but secret gates
acknowledged only in the shadows
my ability to separate your reason

and that is what you
never cared for in me

Many good people came to mourn
Oh,

On that day when they murdered John
It was such a dark heartbreak moment...

I wait idled and swimming in filth.
Because of you 
I twitch forty times the way of God.

In front of your front.

   Look at
     pain, angst, hunger
       businesses idled.

             A prison
             enough --
             her empty
             salon.
