@elonmusk @benshapiro @realDonaldTrump @KamalaHarris What a strawman argument. Using your poor logic, anyone can do what the president does without having to be the president.

they will scream at you
over an accident
and try to convince you
that it was your fault
your choice
to be so awful
pathetic
worthless
and if you try to stand
up for yourself
they will punish you
for being sensitive

"i wasn't yelling
i was raising my voice"

he could only have children with strings
attached to every facet of their being
because the power of ownership
is love

love is possession
as long as the objects
obey

what are his children
if not weapons; tools
a means to exact revenge
upon the very person
he took them from

there is a listening post
under her bed
where she can hear
the slurred speech
of a monster
who's never screamed,
only raised
his voice,
instead of his daughter.
excuses drip
from his teeth
as he rends
her self-esteem,
never "I love you,"
he's the victim
and he'll remind her.

some hearts
wear wickedness
with pride

flaunting fear
and abuse as
medals
made of misery

they are vampiric
draining
afraid of light
never held
in themselves

confusing control
and anger
for love

they bleed
seeing a smile

only taking
hold of you
to pull you
down
down
down

you could dodge a bullet with a joke
but today
when i said i love you
at point blank
you fired back
without warning
and i could've died
on the forest floor
smiling

kissing your cheek with my eyes
through our coffee's breath,
dancing like a whisper
in the morning air,
lifted
through cool wisps of wind
by the warmth between us.

I don't care if I'm the overly sappy
boy from your audio book.

I believed on day one.

We kept our distance until we couldn't.
We crashed into each other—
the most beautiful display of fireworks.
