The Tease

The Tease


Your game is madness,
trying to dispel your sadness
and hatred of your life,
getting back at he who made you his wife
in ongoing campaigns of marital strife
by playing the game of hearts,
never caring who you tear apart,
hoping from the start
in the digital Sodom
to taste the forbidden
and experience things hidden
from your world of just existing
that seems to be mindless twisting
on the gallows of discontent,
for truth is evident,
this depraved descent
is to find the one
who makes you come undone,
with debauched rites
and possessive fights
and cruel might,
making you a slave
with the gift that you gave,
unknowing, falsely brave,
your happiness buried in an early grave
He showed you how much
by dint of his touch
that you are by so far
the wicked person you think you are.
And those you touch
who aren't good enough
you discard their broken souls,
in your attempts to make your mind whole,
you broke them like pottery bowls
and crushed them under your feet.

There is darkness deep inside,
but if you set down your pride
and let me be your trusted guide,
then every fantasy will be satisfied.

On Stereotypes

I face a lot of stereotypes, every day. It seems like everyone has their own preconceptions about me that they form off of the basis of reading a description and statements about my interests. Very few people take the time to leaven those stereotypes with reality, or they become angry if I don't act in accordance to how they feel I should act.

This is especially sad, because this is the place where all of my masks come down. Where I am able to wholly relax and be myself. And almost everyone makes assumptions based off of one facet or another of who I am, instead of taking the time to get to know me in all my complexity.

There are not a whole lot of people out there that are:

Polyamorous
Dominant
A writer
Advocate for a parent's right to choose
Abuse cycle survivor
Against career politicians
A musician
Trained to become a Baptist minister
Believer in reincarnation
An actor
Empath/Sensitive
Pro-military
Pro-Israel
Believer in the worth of chivalry
Proponent of gender equality
Firm believer in civic responsibility
Romantic and idealist
Believer in diversity

But few bother to see more than one facet.

And that is a terrible shame...
