political asylum

offered and relinquished

Offered
under
false
pretenses
your
love
had
teeth
grinding
and
tearing
it
wasn't
a
clean
meal
you
prepared

when
you
offered
me
political
asylum
from
your
mind.

this poem uniquely expresses your talent. it is decisive. it is narrative yet metaphoric. cleverly illustrates a distinctive relationship between lovers. smart.
