Lindsay’s Scribblings

Shivering
The cold
Relations
Convulsions
The silent
Remorse
Quaking
The echo of
Frigid words
Collapsing
The fragile
Sanity
Shivering
The cold
Relations

A mendacious cloud
Of scandal
Is diffusing
Beyond my grasp
In an impersonally
Direct
Assault
On my character
And the hand of
Sanity
I am accused
Of clinging to
Too tightly
Is my only
Grounding
Against
This outrageous thunder
Of falsehood
And assiduity.
I will not
Let Go.

Don’t say that
Don’t say what
Is not true
How can you
Sit idly by
As she lies?

This skirmish of skin
Euphoria
But I can’t tell you so
In these surroundings
That longing stare
Adorable
But I have to look away
So I don’t prove myself
Immodest
