Unlove Me with Your Love
You cannot be me
you man
will not like those cheap beads
on your neck,
which he loves on mine.
You cannot be me
you cannot be naked with clothes on.
You have to endure your man
sleeping around,
with me.
You cannot be me
because-
feathers do not touch my skin,
tears run through my sinew,
I am scary
and,
scared from within.
Foxes are beguiled to me
but, you still cannot be me
because they will buy me Perfumes
but not their names.
I am this.
I ain't you.
I am just naked.
Bespattered with your man's eyes.
I am this.
I am ugly in sunshine
but-
eternally beautiful,
Once the candle blows off.
