All I Remember (in December)
Christmas/December for me has not been happy for a while, it's either I am breaking up with someone or I am remembering a particularly heart breaking break-up! Why do breakups tend to happen when everyone else is "shinning their teeth"? Newayz, I've done a poem in honor of December break-ups. This poem is better read out loud. The impact of the words will be better felt. Also notice it's in small caps all through, that's to highlight the feeling of "can't be bothered" that overwhelms you after such a loss. Yeah, your bona-fide wet blanket is back y'all. Enjoy

ALL I REMEMBER
senseless, insolent
words in malevolence
your slight at my plight
torturing – crushing me
I have no recollection
of sensation nor specifics
all I remember that December
is the music ceasing
and the light leaving the night
as you turned your back
your stunning blue dress
running from me
as the nights become longer
and my pain grows stronger
