blot violent blot
covered my don’t’s
and sucked my
tears back inside
tar stains my
heels, drags my
“No” and “Don’t”
down, now only
sludge remains
alone and reminds
me of the
“Don’t live” refrain
Don’t cry
Don’t indulge in
emotion orgies
don’t blots
memories
leaves life
unexpressed
don’t
blot
don’t’s
