JUNE JORDAN

1976

WASTED



You should slice the lying tongue of your love

into a billion bits of bile you swallow

one bilious element at a time

while

scalding water trembles drop

by drop between

(you hope)

between your eyes because

you said you loved me

and you lied

you lied



All you wanted was to rid me of my pride

to ruin me for tenderness

you lied

to thrust me monstrous from the hurt

you fabricated claiming

all the opposites of pain

while maiming

me

the victim of your whimsical disdain...
