Valentine Theatre

I want to squeeze that wedding band I never bought
around your neck and string you to the gallows.
Drag you up amidst all those people
lost for breath much the same.

Kick and scream, untwist the twine,
this time is mine, don’t dare be content.
Tangle and buckle damnit, gargle for life,
give the people a show, my morbid matinee
