For David.
January 6, 2023
I hate your poetry.
You try to add meaning
rather than writing with passion and desire.
Your need for validation of your complex
English vocabulary is worth pitying-
pointless dramas and sob stories
whose only purpose is to look pretty and sound nice.
How do you feel? Liberated? Open?
What emotion churns inside you when pen touches paper?
I hate your poetry.

I wrote this piece about my boyfriend. He shares some of his work with me, and I am supportive of his creative journey- but poetry and writing is much more meaningful when coming from the heart.
