Complaint Case #1: Dear Mr. "Poet"

Dear Mr. "Poet"
and your pocket-fill
of self-inflicted
tear stains;
your big, bloated
bag of sensitivity,
with a
handshake advertisment campaign
of sympathy ...

Dear Mr. "Poet"
and the soft
spoken shirt
you wear to bed;
the photos
of ghosts and shadows
that you force
into your eyes ...

Dear Mr. "Poet"
I grow tired
of the
rock you carry
ever so carefully
as a heart.
