The Heart’s Balderdash

Nomadic temperaments hemorrhage degradation

Since amity is a falsehood…

…a poignant adversary that swindles sentiment

Infidelity is a malignancy sown into a man’s loins

No luminosity decants amidst the transom

As I convene now abandoned and somnolent

Someday another will unearth a technique

To amputate our domestic relations

Some people respond to the trials of others with "live with it." That's exactly what you do with love, even when it forsakes you after its abuses. It is easy to view it as an emotional fraud and yet, it gnaws at us in the midst of night and brings demands far worse than hunger. I liked this very much, Raven, from my heart down to my "malignancy."

Dark but yet holds so much truth as well. I loved it. Great writing as always!!

This is so perfect.. I could feel the passion in each word.. I love that last line..it seals this up well.. xo Powerful work...xo

Dark and full of truth... it's life and we must feel and see all in honesty. Pure artist you're, you never let me down, on even the cruel sites of your beautiful brain. So powerful, and full of great metaphor. The last sentence did it for me.
Very well written.
