10 Etznab
White Planetary Mirror
Murdered was my Soul –
Surgically
Methodically
Intentionally
In infancy
Ignored –
Or given deadly
Double Meanings
By five
I was wise
Well beyond my Years
Thoroughly repressed
Utterly depressed
It got much worse –
Needle Tracks
Insults – Incest – Neglect
Not–so–veiled References
To my horrendous Imperfections –
There was no pleasing
No appeasing
No Approval
In their Eyes
I fail
In all Ways –
