Destitution
In the face of your
Erratic eloquence
My tender ego
Gets vanquished
Into a bruised Silence
Like a shivering dove
Facing a tottering shaft.
As the renewed vigor of your arrogance
Trample over and subjugate
The finer blades of my dreams
My masculine bravery
Gets taken over
By an enduring timidity.
I dare not confide
The cherished chapter of my autobiography,
As I get reduced
Into a shameless mass of destitution.
