The Cottage
Eye have had My Fill
of wedding rings
& long black hairs
dislodged from corners,
bed & bath
The man is Mine —
if He is a Man —
and I cannot live
the single life

What is the significance
of the smell of a worn tee shirt
worn one night
by an estranged husband?
The smell of comfort?
No.
The smell of sex?
No.
The smell of age?
No.
The smell of possession?
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
What are The Extremities
of The Human Body
but The Rays of A Star?
The trick is to hold Your Power
over someone’s head
without bashing in
His Skull
Dr Blair was surprised
I didn’t end up
in a dumpster in New York —
Well — he’ll be a lot more
surprised
when Eye end up
as The New Darling
of The Black Revolution
Today Eye saw
The Other Lolita
and managed to stare Her down
She tried to look me through and through
and took My Smile
above My Frown
Bereft of family
I would like My Own Baby —
but The Father?
There would be no father.
Baby would be immaculate.
How’bout Them Apples?
Yes Eye got Dr Blair
OUT
He doesn’t belong HERE
any more
if He cannot COME
on MY TERMS
Eye don’t want him
at all
“God is The Ultimate
Control Freak”
Eye had a dream
of Treena’s Hair —
back to normal
dark brown
cut short
and cute
