Word thief
So you say you’ve
Been reading my
Poems.
Why should that be
So shocking. You have
Tried to take a chunk
Out of all parts of
My life for most of the
Time I can remember.
And who am I to say who can look at my
Totally public internet
Page.
But my poems are a
Tiny part of me
That I share with
An invisible
Audience of my
Friends and Internet
Strangers or searchers that happen
To stumble on to my
World expressing words
And as I post them
I don’t know who’s
Looking but like with all aspects of my
Public and private life
I hope that the onlooker
Is not you.
I exclude you on purpose and this
Secret recital
You feel entitled to
Is not yours. There
Maybe poems about
Your evil and our malicious
Encounters.
Even with you as the subject
Doesn’t mean I should
Be subjected to your scrutiny
All poems about this topic. The topic of you
Are the most aggressive, filled
With the most distain .
I wish
I didn’t have to write them.
Please don’t read
Them.
Ok
My public private entity
Ruined by
Your eyes.
