i wanted to quote
my own poems
but i knew
how disinterested he'd be
being preoccupied
with my breasts and all
i mean
why should i waste
my breath?
so i quoted shakespeare instead
you know
that speech hamlet makes
to ophelia
where he makes her
feel just like a slut
i know
he won't remember
what i said
but one day
he's gonna tell his friends
he fucked a poet
