Prose – Ruin and Repeat


– Ruin and Repeat –

Her will is overridden
by mechanical need;
A biological process
so painfully overdriven.

Punish her body
with perpetual pleasures.
All of her wanting
is withheld and destroyed.

Moments of pleasure
become hours of pressure.
Love comes and goes,
and still she works without relief.

Ruined, and repeat.
