I am an easy target.
Emotions are always wrong.
Take them from my body,
And call my feelings wrong.
Question me.
Tell me I’m not real.
Because my emotions
Are wrong.
I am not simple
So I am wrong.
Twist me and dump me
Back in my hole.
Wad me up.
Forget all the wrong
I am
As you watch
Me disintegrate,
Alone,
In the dead pool
Of your disgust.

Strong, evocative stuff. I felt sad upon completion actually. Which I think means the poet’s done a good job
