Squeezing the Bitch



Squeezing the bitch,

Out of me.

Fighting the bitch,

The all-over-me itch,

To retaliate,

And wound,

To the quick.



Where does it

Come from?

Such good,

Gone rotten,

In a shake,

In a word.


I bless,

Then curse.


Out of control,

I say,

Terrible things,

Then die of shame,

The next moment.

A violent tongue,

Spitting fire,

With a torrent,

Of unrepeatables.



I only lash out,

In perceived self-defence,

But mostly,

I am wrong.

There was no

Malice,

Intended.


My skin,

Is too thin.
