Acrylic-Chelsea Bednar
You told me
once that icicles could fall and kill a man
I wasn’t
prepared for the one you wielded so haphazardlyThe vastness of your cavern of contempt illustrated sharply
A depiction of the many slaves you own on any given day
Digging deep to find the root of the cancer
With blistered psyche and aching heart valves
I finally came upon the treasure chest that concealed the answer
And so with this letter I wanted to let you know
I am fine and I need to stop by and pick up my record collection

ReplyDeleteDamn, Corey--never leave your record collection with *anybody*! I speak from experience--wonderful use of both clean sharp visuals and a down to earth language to convey the nasty and vicious twist of relationship gone bad.

Love how visual you twist the image!
Well done...

"The vastness of your cavern of contempt" certainly depicts someone who would kill a man with an icicle. Hope you survive the picking-up of your record collection and the possibility of an ice-pick waiting there with it.

ReplyDeleteThe fitness tips for motivation we've been discussing can be very powerful if you use them. The second option is to use headphones as you probably did at the gym in the past. This type of exercise will increase your cardiovascular endurance, improve your flexibility, increase your muscle strength, improve your balance and can actually reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
