Friends

Were I a saner and more assertive person, I would have long abandoned friends that seem to deem being emotional vampires "all right" in context, so long as their assumptions and assertations make them feel better about themselves, i.e put them in place of the victim, and others in place of the villain. Regardless of logic. Regardless of human etiquette.

Sometimes I think the world lacks compassion, other times, when this happens, I think we have too much tolerance for utter bullshit as it is.

 

A universe of unmapped grief and love
And new master light is beyond
The pleiades and plow and southern stars.

O soaring
Icarus of outworld, burn bright
The traceries of known skymarks,
Slide the highway planets behind
Your clear waxed wings.

Go conquer the everywhere left
Beyond your sad confinement
In a predicted bonehouse,
Witch thrown riddle of flesh
And water.

O soar until nothing
remains but great glittering holes
In the black godspun shirt over your head.
