Love and hate reside in the farce.
The travesty of an act,
They say what it takes to charge,
that being the only fact.
Love?
Hate.
The words that seep in,
they check the mind like a cape.
Nothing but decay,
Martyr complex. Savior complex,
It’s entirely up to you.
Their words
like poison
sharp, yet blunt.
One thing
Then
Another.
A-B-A, B-C-B, C-D-C, D-E-D.
my terza rima.
Finita la commedia
