EULOGY

Scared and scarred,
many times dejected
love was the only thing you ever had to offer
and it was filled with holes and scorched by demons
I took it cause you held it out
In your hands
Eyes half mad
Scrambling about for affection
Oh, Laughter
Oh, Right Hand
You’d drop your trousers for a bit of affection.
The first time we took you out the light of the bar
Shining on your large forehead
Like the moon
Like the love starved moon
And you lay on your back and sucked love up like a sponge
And then spat it out—was it bad brandy?
Or was it just an unacquired taste?
