this mess that you've left
is me,
you should be impressed with
the stitches and sutures, i confess
i learned to sew because of you,
and i learned to tie a bow,
and i learned to tie a noose,
and unravel...
loose woman could be my name,
loosening my legs is my claim to fame,
i am famous for my hostessing,
famous for my show-stopping breathlessness.
famous for the mess
you left.
