Remember-me (an ode to those dropped off at the clinic) (Ode) by Bachus
I read the letter that you left me. Then I framed it on my wall. So that I could see it always. While I wait for you to call. I want to say I'm sorry, and hold you in my arms. But you aren't going to let me. You claim my voice falsely-charms. Now who am I supposed to turn to? When things get hard to bare. Since, I only have your letter. To dwell upon and stare. I remember poems and paintings. That I made up just for you. Are they still in your old closet? While I play the lonely fool. I should have stayed home on those nights. When you chose to cry. Instead I went out with my friends. Never knowing why. Now forever has no boundaries. That I can plainly see. Now all I want to wish for. Is that you'll remember me. P.s. Our time together weighs upon my heart like an abortion, thank god. Cheers! You know who you are. Sorry for the inconvenience. (not really) I truly used you the most of all, truly. Think of it this way, I took you there, and paid for it. (I wrote it off with this years taxes though.) xoxoxo, The one that happilly got away.

tantilizing. metamorphic beauty. Read it over just to see fuzzy again. Definitely top quality and makes me fondle the quality of my other night (project) task of looking out for my counter (part). 9

Other than this line:
"You claim my voice is false and charms"
,which could have been written better such as
"full of false charms" or something like that, I really like it. I like the part about fucking the sister. It takes guts or revenge to admit such a thing.

One can admire the work without admiring the sentiment. A worthy lesson, at least.

The P.S. is a letdown. You could have done better than that.

Some misspellings here and a few creaky rhymes. But it has a faux naif appeal. (sorry to sound pretentious). The PS works well and has the ring (and sting) of truth.

Very funny. Stanza 4 (especially the last line) is excellent. 9

was bare bare instead of bear on purpose, or a typo? I hope on purpose, it made me laugh.
