there’s nothing left to see
in that vale of vile fenestration
there’s nothing left to say
we did you once
we’ll do you twice
only you are to blame
the hearty molestations
of our collective indifference
are the consequence
of your consent
you dare to lift reproachful eyes
against us
you put your fist in the mouth of truth
hoping to silence us forever
but what is truth
apart from what we say
had you have known better
that hope is a curse
a curse of diminished returns
then would you have demanded
we to add a braille of tears
to your perforated skin
no, we’ll stab you again & again
& again with joyful contempt
crying bitch
you looked up to us, fool
as well you should
until our sun & stars finally stole your sight
truly, what are you doing here

“We’ll stab you again and again.” So true. And people bare their throats after each bloody piercing.

You’re so right! It’s that baring of the throat that gets me every time. I just don’t get why people keep acting against their own interests!

Charlie, you’ve nailed our situation so perfectly. We are the enablers, we have got to fight against this evil before it is too late. Thanks for writing this. It is spot on.

Thank you for reading it, my friend. Believe me, I’m rooting for you guys to prevail against this evil, and you’re so right in calling it that. It cannot be called anything else.

we are, always the, enablers of our own, abuse, because we allowed others to keep on taking advantage of us, and we feel, victimized, when in truth, we are NOT the viictims, we are the reason why someone else keeps on, taking advantage of us.
