A response to Sarah-Jane's picture
I dealt myself a hand, so as to see
what future fate might have in store for me.
Now I’m perpetually juggling these
unappetising possibilities:
leaving my heart alone, albeit rent
by bastards with impermanent intent,
getting my tits out on the Internet -
putting it out there, seeing what I get
or opting for a cop-out, on the shelf,
doing my best to satisfy myself;
a solitary jack – to half-employ
a disappointing double-ended toy.
I float alone, searching for metaphors
in endless Marienbadic corridors…
