house rules

... She sits patiently picking your brain,
while hell's gates warm to the thought of incoming suggestion
bracing for an onslaught of cookie conversations,
.. collecting crumbs to fill the void, yet .. keep me on the come back.
.. Such a clever minx you are ..
I knew what you represented by the ec(hoe) in your tone,
.. acoustics thrive on distance, .. but I don't much care for shouting,
so if you're goin2 fuck me up, .. the least you can do is adore me
in the the process.. ~ .. after all, .. i did agree to play the game.

This is quite the roller coaster. Starts out on the light side, almost humorous then picks up all that intensity. "keep me on the comeback."--love that. The last three lines are a poem on their own. This work is faved. (P.S.-for the record, I already adore you.)

-GAMES- It's funny because people today almost need to play games, with one another, to keep things from becoming trite. -I hate that- On a different note, I love the cookie metaphor. Very cool -rach

Right on the button with this one. You're otherwordly in your knack for writing exactly what Im feeling exactly when Im feeling it. To not even feel loved during a relationship that just isn't made to work, but is worked through anyway. Resigned to it's end, looking back, and realizing that you were just a tool used to vent and get through another day. Do you make voodoo dolls to go along with the crystal ball you own of my soul?
