No space

in my mind

is void

of you.

 

You permeate

every pore

taint memories

with terror.

 

What if

I could

wish you

away?

 

Can I take

an eraser

and rub you

away?

I am paying

some damn

good money

to find out.   

 

I will take

my easel out

and paint

a pretty picture

and leave the

misogynist out.

Great you have reached that point.

Well, that says it all, clearly and without equivocation. If it weren't for a restraining order, I would send it to my ex wife. Not that there is a restraining order, but sending that to her would likely generate one.

That is one powerful statement.

This was good, real good. Off to your most recent article, see you there. Woops, I need to smack a yellow ten star for this one. I almost didn't recognize the new icon was you, Scully.

Strong images and very powerful thrust at the end.
