jealousy

16 diamonds
set in precious metal
a love and a staff
frozen snow crystals
a psychic reading
about the love of us both
with a critical tongue
and a clear vendetta salute
Lord Haw Haw, i suppose
the comedian of war -
precious wit and lies told
to bully and scare
i may be pushing my luck
right now,
in this relationship
but i need to know
are we both in it?
i know i'm sexually phobic
and brought low by children
i'm lazy and indolent
and stink like a lizard
but if you could give
to me girlfriend,
the one thing i haven't
ever had in my life
then please take care
and always hold onto me
maybe we can escape
from this town's
jealousy.
