Purist-realist manipulates.
Purist-realist segregates.
Purist-realist -
on their own terms
Purist-realist - you never learn.
Inner loathing,
the mounting hate.
Hundred fights,
a thousand regrets.
Sacrifice,
you wear me
like a second skin.
Dwelling on a scene
of bitter lore,
harping on some forgotten war.
The shadow former self.
Two-faced preacher
- denied yourself
Purist-realist
- a rotting state of grace.
Cannot be me.
Cannot see
the once-treasured
depleting life it shows in.
Your weakness, impotence,
inability to have spoken
summarizing that teasing
that non-restricted feeling
set in a moment in dealing.
Return to the source of regret.
